Ingredients

Instructions

0 of 5 done
  1. Step 1

    In a blender or food process (this can also be done in a bowl with an immersion blender), add in the cottage cheese, cheddar cheese and taco seasoning.

  2. Step 2

    Blend until creamy and no lumps remain. I needed to add about a tablespoon of water to thin mine out a little.

  3. Step 3

    Pour into a bowl and microwave in 15 second increments, stirring in between. I microwaved mine for about a minute total. You want to stir in between though to avoid the cheese curdling. Season with salt as desired and enjoy!

  4. Notes

  5. Step 4

    *If you want this to be a little lighter, you can start with just 1/4 cup of cheddar and add more later as needed

  6. Step 5

    Storage Instructions – Store leftover queso in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave, stirring often.
