  2. When all veggies are tender and onions translucent add to the double boiler and then add your cheese. When cheese has melted add the remaining ingredients. Cook over low heat and stir occasionally for 1/2 hour so that all of the flavors blend well. 
  3. This queso can be stored in the fridge for up to 14 days in airtight container. To reheat use a microwave or over a pan of water. Excellent over enchiladas, tortillas just wrapped with butter or over your favorite nachos.
