So, let's talk queso for a quick minute. There are so many different variations on queso dip and, tbh, I love them all. The classic restaurant-style is, of course, one of my favorites. It's plain white queso, aka queso blanco, and it's a total winner in my book.
At many restaurants, you can find variations that can be super fun and delicious. Some restaurants will add meat, green chilies, or salsa to white queso. This Salsa Con Queso features the salsa add-in and it is so delish!
