Make some chile con queso. You won't find this in a restaurant. One of my ultimate comfort foods. It's Hispanic heritage month and my grandma and grandpa came here from Zacatecas, Mexico. I feel like this is a dish that many Hispanic households have a version of. It's just how my family does it. Roughly chop up some tomatoes, some good old jalapenos. We're gonna leave these in slices. Careful what you touch after you touch these. My grandma used to make this, my mom used to make this, and now I make this. So it's really a comfort food for me. Some onions sliced up and a cracked ton of garlic. I'm doing about 10 cloves. You guys already know I'm gonna go in with my hexclad deep saute. Literally my most used rank. Worst, we're gonna add our jalapeno, tomato, and garlic rank cook this until it's just starting to get soft. Gonna add a can of tomato sauce and some water. I did about two and a half cups. We're gonna season with some salt. As this is boiling, I'm gonna add my onion. I like to add the onion a little later because I don't want it to be too soft. Usually, I like a little bit more onion. This was my last onion, and it was small. We're working with it. Now tier part that'll make you not even miss meat in this dish, yes cotija. Drop it in all over. Oh, and cut the heat. You can use queso fresco if you prefer. I like cotija better. Cover it and let the cheese soften slightly, but watch it because it will disintegrate if you're not careful. Just for a few minutes. No simple yes so delicious. With a side of beans, and there you no. Cheese of beans. Oh my god. Literally, like, the most comforting name. This really makes me think of my mom and my grandma. We're both no longer here, but that's why this dish is so special. So make some chile con queso. So good long. I'm a little bit fat.
