Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Tablespoon Butter,
- 3 Tablespoons Diced Red Onion
- 3 Green Onions, Diced
- 1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic (Heaping)
- 1–2 Chili, Roasted and Diced (Use jalepeno or serrano or whatever you like. Remove the seeds unless you like extra heat.)

- 6 Ounces Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1 pound Mexican melting cheese (Use only as much as needed)
Instructions
- Melt the butter in your fondue pot or sauce pan.
- Add the diced onions, garlic, and chilis and sauté.
- Add the drained canned tomatoes and stir, cooking down any liquid.
- Add the heavy whipping cream, stir and bring to an “almost” boil.
- Turn down the heat slightly and add the cheese a little at a time, stirring briskly until each bit is melted before adding more. Keep adding cheese until your queso is the perfect dipping consistency. About 2/3 of a pound.
- Reduce heat. Keep over low heat until finished serving.

This is the fondue pot we have and love.
