Queso Fundido

Once a month I have potluck with a group of my female friends.  We pick a theme, each bring a dish, and drink plenty of wine.  It's  a wonderful time I look forward to monthly.  This months theme was mexican.  There were pulled pork tacos, pomegranate guacamole, spicy quinoa salad, skinny girl margaritas, and I provided some queso fundido.  Everything was amazingly yummy.  Next month I'll be hosting a tropical themed potluck.  I'll be sure to post the pineapple bbq sliders I'll be making, but for now try this spicy queso fundido. Sadly there is no picture of the finished product as I was a bit to occupied socializing.
