RENE'S FAMOUS QUESO DIP

Talk about potluck, tailgate party...this is the best! Easy and delicious, packed with flavor! Easy because you'll be cooking this in your slow cooker, packed w/ flavor ofcourse, it's my sister's recipe! Thank you Nang, this is always a score! ha!ha!ha!

**IF YOU DON'T HAVE A SLOW COOKER OR YOU WANT TO COOK THIS STOVE TOP JUST FOLLOW THE COOKING INSTRUCTIONS ON THE CAN LABEL

It's funny but true, i had no idea that Rotel is a brand. She calls this dip, Rotel, all the while i thought it's the name of the recipe until i found cans of Rotel by the salsa aisle at the grocery store and to top it all i saw the recipe at the back of the label. So, i tried and followed the recipe from the label, but it didn't taste like my sisters'. My sister's version is way better, she actually added some ingredients to kick the original recipe another notch, no wonder!

Aside from the basic ingredients which are a can of Rotel Diced Tomatoes, Velveeta Cheese, she adds a 1/2 lb. of  cooked/sauteed ground beef or more depending on how much you'll be making and a packet of taco seasoning. Her version made a whole lot of difference. A flavorful Queso dip!!! This sure is a TOUCHDOWN!!!
