I love Don Pablos and so does my family. I just hate spending $4.00 for a bowl of their Chili Con Queso that may family gobbles up in 2 minutes. Here is a recipe that tastes exactly like theirs and cost about 1/3 as much to make!

Years ago, my husband invented this gooey cheese dip. I may be biased, but I have to say it's excellent. If you like heat, rev it up with finely chopped jalapenos. -Patricia Leinheiser, Albuquerque, New Mexico
