One popular variation of queso is the “queso asado”, which is served hot on a skillet with roasted vegetables and spicy chorizo. This dish can also be customized with various toppings such as avocado, cilantro, diced tomatoes, and pickled jalapenos. Another variation is the “queso con queso”, which is served with a layer of melted cheese and chorizo, followed by another layer of melted cheese.

No matter what variation you choose to make, queso fundido will always be sure to satisfy your cheesy cravings!
Serve this recipe with chips and some excellent Homemade Mexican Salsa, Garden Fresh Salsa or some spicy Chile de Arbol Salsa! This also goes great on Beef Carnitas Tacos, Slow-Cooker Shredded Chicken Tacos or Marinated Hot Pork: Carne Adovada Tacos.
