This Easy Beef Queso is a simple yet insanely delicious recipe. The best part is it can be ready in just under 20 minutes.
Nachos are never a thing anyone turns down on game day. Really having queso, chips, soda, and maybe a few crackers and some M&Ms makes every game day a win, whether your team takes the victory or not.
Today I am sharing this delicious Easy Beef Queso recipe along with my thoughts on the ease of picking up all of your family game day essentials.
Growing up, football season was big in my home. My parents had their friends over and always made a delicious spread. I have fond memories of my mom’s queso, Shelia’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars, and Jean always bringing something new and tasty. Connie, my mom’s friend, was known for her no-bake cookies, and I always hoped she would bring them; it always made my day. More often than not, she did.
I want to create these same memories for my kids, starting with great food and people.
Of course, since my mom’s queso recipe was my favorite, I wanted to share it with you. Easy and simple, this is the perfect dip for chips, crackers, and taquitos, and honestly, you could eat it with a spoon.
What ingredients do you need to make queso?
- Ground Beef
- Taco Seasoning
- Velvetta Cheese
- Cheddar Cheese
- Canned Diced Tomatoes with Green Chiles
