Does anyone know how to make this dip???
A friend of mine & I have a summer tradition (summer only cause she goes to school outta state the rest of the year) of going to the restaurant Chevy's one night every week for margaritas. Along with the margaritas we get chips, guacamole & their absolutely delicious queso dip. (It's sooooo addicting!!)
I know how to make guacamole but does anyone know how to make the queso dip like that???
I know people will tell me to use onions, chiles, tomatoes & velveeta cheese but it just doesn't taste the same!! I KNOW there's something else they put in there to give it such a unique flavor & I'm dying to know so I can make the stuff myself. I've seen it listed on a website (topsecretrecipes.com) but they don't have it on there anymore & I doesn't appear to be in their archives either =o(
Also, does anybody know any other reliable top secret recipe sites other than the one I listed??

Chile Con Queso
by Todd Wilbur
This top secret clone of the cheesy appetizer from this 140-unit Mexican food chain is perfect to whip out for your Cinco de Mayo festivities. This recipe will make enough of the spicy cheese concoction perfect for plenty of party-time double dipping. The Anaheim chile has a mild spiciness, so we'll toss a jalapeno in there for an extra spicy kick. If you can't find an Anaheim pepper, use any mild green chilies that are available, as long as you get about 1/2 cup of diced pepper in the mix.
16-ounce box Velveeta
3/4 cup whole milk
1 green Anaheim pepper, seeded and diced (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup diced white onion
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
2 teaspoons minced cilantro
juice of 1 lime
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper (freshly ground is best)
pinch of salt
pinch of dried thyme
2 medium tomatoes, seeded and diced (about 2/3 cup)
Garnish
1/4 cup ranchero cheese, crumbled
tortilla chips for dipping
1. Combine Velveeta and milk in a medium saucepan over medium/low heat. Stir often as cheese melts. Be careful not to burn it.
2. When cheese is melted add the remaining ingredients, but not the tomatoes. Continue to cook over medium/low heat for 7 minutes, stirring often to prevent burning. Stir in tomatoes and remove queso from heat.
3. Pour queso into a serving dish, top with crumbled ranchero cheese and serve with tortilla chips for dipping.
Makes about 2 cups.
