Three-Cheese Cowboy Queso Dip

You have to be romantic to invest yourself, your money & your time in cheese.

-Anthony Bourdain

Recently I have been ALL ABOUT some tailgate inspired appetizers.

We have always been a football house on Saturdays because, duh, I have to watch the Crimson Tide whenever they play. But this year Ryan let me join his fantasy football team, so Sunday’s have now become another day where we eat appetizers & sit on the couch all day.

Because of this new found weekend lifestyle, I have been creating new appetizers for us to munch on while we watch.

This weekend, I wanted to make a dupe of my favorite queso from Pancho Villa in Winston Salem, called “Super Dip”. There isn’t much too it, they just add ground beef, beans & sour cream to their queso and it becomes liquid gold.

I decided to up my version of it with three times the cheese & a little more spice so I give you my soon-to-be famous, Three-Cheese Cowboy Queso Dip!

It can be made in 30-minutes or less, is the ultimate cheesy comfort food & is the perfect dip for any kind of party!
