Copycat Chili’s Queso Dip
Description
Russ is a huge fan of Chili’s Restaurants Queso dip, and since the Super Bowl is a week away, this might find it’s way to our party foods!
Ingredients
16 ounces processed cheese (such as Velveeta®), cut into 1 inch cubes
1 cup whole milk
1 (15 ounce) can no-bean chili (such as Hormel®)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (from 1 lime)
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped white onion
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 (9 ounce) package yellow or white corn tortilla chips
Salsa
Directions
Gather all ingredients. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add cheese and milk; cook, stirring often, until smooth, about 4 minutes. Stir in chili, lime juice, chili powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and cayenne. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, mix together onion and cilantro in a small bowl. Top queso with cilantro-onion mixture, and serve with tortilla chips and salsa on the side.

YT Comment on Episode #556 from tgrossner
Can you elaborate on the Wavelog project? I am an avid Cloudlog user, host my own on my ham control PC and run an installation for my club. Is there a compelling reason I would want to migrate to Wavelog?
