Tex Mex Enchilada Queso

It’s about that time. We’ve been going mostly healthy since the start of the year but The Big Game is only a few short weeks away and it’s time to buckle down and get to business. We’re kicking the season off with Tex Mex Enchilada Queso – duh.

This cheesy Tex Mex Enchilada Queso absolutely, without a doubt, needs to be the MVP of your game day parties. Whip up a batch of this dip and get a big bag of Garden of Eatin’® Blue Corn Tortilla Chips – which I’ll have you know are the Mother of all Chips™ and can stand up to any dip!. The dip in itself is epic with rotisserie chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, spices, enchilada sauce (I used green – but green or red work… or a mixture of both), beans, corn and cheese… basically everything you’d throw into a batch of enchiladas….but in dip form. It’s brilliant if you ask me. If you’re going vegetarian, you can omit the chicken FYI – or replace with an extra spoonful of beans or fajita veggies 🙂

Another part of this recipe that is mandatory – Garden of Eatin’® Tortilla Chips!! Don’t skimp – you need these! The original non-GMO Blue Corn Tortilla Chips offer a hearty texture, satisfying crunch and organic, true-blue corn flavor, which is perfect with this dip. If you’re looking for an extra kick of flavor, grab the Garden of Eatin’ Red Hot Blues® Corn Tortilla Chips.  Sprinkled with a dash of cayenne pepper complements the Tex Mex Enchilada Queso like a BOSS! All varieties are made with the best quality real ingredients, non-GMO, organic and certified gluten-free! And word to the wise – grab a few extra bags because there is nothing worse than having a big pot of queso and running out of chips. Basically the biggest party foul you could imagine.

Best part about this entire situation, you could assemble it ahead of time and bake it off right before your guests show up. That way it’s bubbling and ready to go for kick off. And no one is cooking during kick off!

So, while the game is still over 2 weeks away, best to start making your menu now. And put THIS situation front and center! To find a store near you – click here!
