Mom suggested I post this one – it’s one of the classics we learned from my late grandmother. People ask Mom for this recipe All. The. Time. So here it is – as Mom says, the beauty of it is that it’s easy to remember: 2 lbs cheese + 1 lb sausage + 1 lb salsa = 4 lbs!<\/p>\n\n\n

Gogi’s 4-Pound Queso Dip<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n
This is a classic and always well-received. I love it best with Frito's Scoops. A 3-4 quart slow cooker is the ideal size for this recipe.<\/span><\/div>\n

      Notes<\/h3>
        \n
      • This dip freezes very well – sometimes I just get a hankering for some, and I’ll make up a batch, then freeze a few 2-cup containers for later use. This is particularly<\/em> handy for surprise entertaining events.<\/li>\n
      • I have also been known to mix some of this queso up with some al-dente cooked pasta (think medium elbows or shells) and serve it for supper on a night when DMc and I need some comfort food.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\u00a0<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
