Chili Con Queso

A friend brought us some of this delicious, versatile dip.  I had to get the recipe.  It is absolutely delicious.  You can serve it warm with tortilla chips, or make nachos, mix it with eggs and serve in a tortilla for a sausage burrito (it tastes very much like a McDonalds sausage burrito,) or as a sauce over chicken.  It is delicious spooned over cauliflower.  Or you can just drink it!   Just kidding- sort of.  It is a Pioneer Woman recipe.

Chili Con Queso

1 lb. sausage, she uses hot, we prefer the sweet
1 onion, chopped
1- 2lb. block Velveeta, cut in large cubes
1 10 oz can diced tomatoes with green chilis
2 cans diced green chilis
1 jalepeno, diced- optional, or to taste

Cook the onion and broken up sausage together in a large skillet. Drain. When done, add the cheese.  When the cheese is melted, add the tomatoes, green chilis, and jalapeno.  Mix well.  There you have it!  It makes a big batch, but freezes well.  We like to freeze portions in small containers to be thawed and used as needed.
