Take-out Tuesday, Corn & Spinach Queso

Happy Accident? Sorta, but I really thought this would be good.

It was one of those, Uh Oh! I was supposed to make an appetizer, situations… What with entertaining witches and goblins and Halloween ghosts~it just slipped my mind… I needed something fast~

Really.  The hardest part is opening the cans.  If you don’t have a mini crockpot, just put it in a dish for the oven or microwave. You can’t mess this up.  Heat and eat!  You don’t even have to season it, it’s good to go~

AND it’s loaded with veggies!

Do you have one of these mini crock pots? They are perfect for hot dips.  I picked mine up at the grocery store one day for about $12.  I know they are widely available, Target, Wal-Mart, BBB.  You just toss everything in, turn it on and stir it after about 1 hour or so and keep heating until its hot enough to serve.  Or take it to a party and plug her in!

Here’s the recipe:

    I love this variation to the traditional chili con queso, and you can bet this I will make, probably tomorrow night when friends are coming for Mexican food.
