Preparation

Step 1

Combine undrained tomatoes and Velveeta in 1-1/2-quart microwave-safe dish; cover.

Cook's Tips

For a double recipe, microwave on HIGH 8 minutes or until Velveeta melts, stirring after 5 minutes. Drain 1 can of tomatoes if a thicker dip is preferred. To make on stovetop, combine undrained tomatoes and Velveeta in medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat 5 minutes or until Velveeta is melted completely and mixture is blended, stirring frequently. Garnish queso dip with 1 tablespoon drained Ro*Tel tomatoes and 1 cilantro leaf just before serving.
