COTIJA CHEESE SALSA



Cotija Cheese Salsa image

This is an excellent, fresh tasting dip. It is a sort of dry salsa that uses Cotija Mexican cheese. Cacique makes it and it is very easy to find in the southwest. The cheese is a crumbly, salty cheese that is very good. You could make this and eat it with corn tortilla chips or add as a garnish to any Mexican style meal. With out the seeds it is very mild for even a young guest, but can be hotter if you leave in the seeds. Our guests always love it.

TOMATO AND BLUE CHEESE SALSA



Tomato and Blue Cheese Salsa image

Another of my favorites, also out of a newspaper years ago. This is fantastic on steaks cooked on the grill, and as a dressing on baked potatoes. Use your imagination!!! I'm sure this would be just as good with other vegies, and chicken or fish.
