Tequila Queso Fundido Recipe

Recipe By Real Simple

Whats not to like about a bowl of hot, velvety melted cheese? And this one is spiked with booze, no less Monterey jack is the perfect blank slate for the complex mix of flavors. Theres chili powder and cumin to add earthy spice, green chilies for a little heat, and tequila which both adds a bite and draws everything together. Of course, if you like a lot of fire, swap in pepper jack. Note: keep an eye on the heat while youre cooking, if it gets too hot the mixture will break.
