We're big sports fans 'round these parts.
The Brewers's home opener was Friday, and with the exception to a GREAT end to that first home game, their performance has um, left something to be desired. (What the HELL, Suppan?!?) The first home series was against the Cubbies, and we looove the Cubs/Brewers rivalry.
I whipped up a little gametime snack on Friday, in honor of the festivities. You know me...its RE-HE-HE-LY easy, or I wouldn't make it at all.
First, cube up a pound of Velveeta cheese.
Add a can of Red Gold diced tomatoes with green chiles.
Microwave it in two minute intervals, stirring in between, until its a bowl of molten cheesy goodness.
Serve with tortilla chips, bagel chips or pretzel rods, and your beer of choice.
This cost me about $5 to make, as compared with $3.89 for a 12 oz jar of the premade stuff. (I ended up with about 3x as much.)
Good luck keeping your four-year-old's fingers out of the bowl. I swear he would have licked it if I'd have let him.

That IS good stuff--and the Brewers winning would make it even better!
That's pretty much our favorite go to queso!

Oh before dieting we would have this snack at every family gathering! Can't wait to have a little again! Yummy stuff!
Why didn't I think of that? Yum!

Yummy! I made this recently for the first time in years. It's so good.
Nummy, nummy, nummy! I've had it made with Rotell tomatoes and even a little hot Italian sausage thrown in. No matter what, that stuff is just yummy. We could even watch the games together, except I'm on the other team. We'd play nice, though, you and I, no?
You can NEVER go wrong with velveeta cheese!
The hubs adores this dip & complains that I do not make enough 'velveeta based foods'. lol
Sorry, but I have to end with...Go Cards! ;)
Oh my gosh - I think I just gained 10 pounds thinking of eating that!! YUMMY!
Oooh, that dip looks good -- I'm sure my kids would devour it. I gotta go get my Red Gold coupons. Thank you Mr. Red Gold tomato company!
And yes, we love the Cubs/Brewers rivalry too -- kinda like the Bears/Packers. If you're a good ole midwesterner, you can't help but love all those teams! :)
Hugs!
looks great one of my favs.....can't wait for football to start back up to start making all the great snacks I have seen today
go Dallas, I love my boys!!!!
So simple and so delicious!
Oh yes, this is one of our all time favorite snacks!!!
Its even good on fajitas!
that's just no good for me to look at right now when i just started a new diet. and i'm a little craving something here.
yummy!! looks scrumptious.
Looks good! Makes me wish I had a block of Velveeta in the fridge.
Yummm. Looks good.
Mmm, sounds yum! I could really go for some of this about now. I'm hungry and trying to stay out of the kitchen... so going through the TMTT posts is not the best idea I don't think ;)
I'm late, but since I'm from Milwaukee I've got to add GO BREWERS!
I have velveeta about once a year (Super Bowl). Why is it so good? It's not like it's real cheese. But it's irresistible!
We melt velveeta with vegetarian chili and dip corn chips. Oh, yum!
(Maybe I'll have it TWO times this year! Or try your Queso dip.)
If only Velveeta weren't bad for my hips....
Go Cubs Go! Sorry been a Cubbbie fan since birth. Your dip looks so yummy and I think I may even be able to pull this one off.
those look GOOD. :D
