Spinach Queso

You could just throw this all in a crock pot and let it melt together, which is the easiest way to do this. I’d allow at least an hour for everything to melt together.

I’m usually making this to take somewhere or throwing it together at a friend’s house, so I speed the process up. I take the block of Velveeta and throw it in the crockpot with the onions, pimentos, and half of the Rotel. I throw the crock pot bowl in the microwave till I can easily stir the cheese. Then I stir in the drained spinach, tomatoes, and jalapenos and combine. If I feel like it needs some more thickness, then I add the remaining drained Rotel; if I feel like it needs to be thinned out, then I add the Rotel without draining it first. I always taste as I go to determine how much spice it needs.

This is a really simple, easily adaptable recipe. If I have fresh tomatoes, I add them; if not, no big deal—it’s still delicious.
