Notes
🧀 Frequently asked questions about this recipe:
Is salsa con queso gluten free?- Yes it is! As long as you use gluten-free chips of course
- No, but it's not super unhealthy, it's a great snack for appetizers and parties!
- You can add Velveeta cheese, but it will give this recipe a way different taste and texture. I recommend using real cheese at all times for this recipe.
- You can store this nacho cheese dip in a glass, sealed airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. I wouldn't go anything beyond the three-day mark as most of the ingredients in this recipe are fresh!
