CRAWFISH QUESO DIP RECIPE

Steps:

• Instructions Preheat the oven to 350, spray a 2-quart baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside. In a medium-sized pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the onions, bell pepper, and garlic and cook until the vegetables are translucent and wilted. Add the salt, pepper and creole seasoning. Add the crawfish; cook for 2 minutes longer. In a large bowl combine the Monterey Jack, cream cheese, and green onions; mix well. Add the crawfish mixture to the cheese mixture, combine well. Pour the entire contents into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the top of the baking dish with a bit more cheese. Bake until the mixture is bubbly and beginning to brown on top, about 25 minutes. Switch the oven to medium heat BROIL, watch closely, and remove as the top of the dip becomes golden brown. Top with chopped green onions and serve immediately.

QUESO DIP WITH CRAWFISH (SPICY)

Steps:

• ~Iused my crockpot for this~.
• Cube the cheese to make melting easier.
• Cut the end off each pepper and push the seeds out with the flat portion of a knife then dice finely.
• If crawfish meat portions are too large, cut into smaller pieces.
• Put all ingredients into crockpot including the adobe sauce from your peppers, stir frequently to allow all to melt and blend.
• I served with multi colored tortilla chips.
• The chipotle pepper is very spicy so you may want to omit the chili powder or cut back on the number of peppers if you do not like it spicy.
• *Thestore brand of Velveta works very well and the crawfish amount is just over a cup and I am sure you can use fresh as well.
• This is also easy to make in the microwave but making it in a crockpot you can serve it in it as well keeping the dip warm.
