Mexican Restaurant Cheese Dip

I don’t know about you, but one of the reasons that I love going to Mexican Restaurants is for the Cheese Dip. I fell in love with that dip from the first bite. Until recently, I had been unable to replicate the recipe to the point where it was just as satisfying as those Restaurants serve.

It was a combination of Salty, savory and cheesy that I could not get in the right combination. Boy, oh boy! I sure enjoyed trying to make the same dip!

This recipe is the one that I settled on. It tastes as close as I can get to the combination of ingredients. I did get the right combination of Salty and savory and creamy with the cheese.

I sure hope you like this outcome. It is easy to make and even easier to eat!
