Notes
ℹ Jalapeño Heatwave:
If you're a fan of spicy flavors, consider adding finely chopped jalapeños to the queso for a fiery kick. The heat of the jalapeños works wonderfully with the rich cheese base.
ℹ Sausage Surprise:
Introduce a savory twist by stirring in cooked and crumbled sausage into the queso. The addition of sausage adds heartiness and a depth of flavor that's hard to resist.
ℹ Sun-Dried Tomato Fusion:
Infuse a Mediterranean flair by adding chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the queso. The tangy sweetness of the tomatoes complements the cheesy goodness beautifully.
