When Tex-Mex makes you say "Oh hell yes." Teeming with subtle, smooth Velveeta, a little cotija to add complexity, and some jalapeńo for kick, we guarantee that you've never had a better queso. Feel free to mix-and-match or customize your dippers, from pita or tortilla chips or even some chunks of oven-crisped bread. Don't skimp on the cilantro; it lightens up the dip just a bit and adds a refreshing, herbal note.
