One of the BEST Pantry Dip Recipes
This Velveeta queso without Rotel recipe is a fantastic pantry-staple meal! It uses almost all ingredients you would have in your dry pantry or cupboards – most of which you probably have on hand. Keeping a well-stocked pantry makes it easy to come up with delicious and healthy meals using a few staples you can rotate. I made a list of my Top 125 Plant-Based Pantry Staples that always keep stocked. And you can check out all my favorite pantry staple ingredients in my Amazon shop here . By stocking up on healthy whole ingredients you can cook delicious recipes without a trip to the store!
What's In This Pantry Queso Dip Recipe?
- Onions & Scallions – I get all the fresh produce for my recipes from my garden and from Misfits Market – they sell all organic produce at a super discounted price, and it's purchased direct from the farmers. We get Misfit Market boxes every month and love picking out our favorite seasonal produce for delivery. You can get $10 off your first box by clicking here! If you think organic produce is too expensive… think again, and give Misfits Market a look!
- Olive Oil: I like to use this fruity Zoe olive oil which has a fantastic flavor and deep color- it's really inexpensive online here, so I keep a few liters stocked up in my pantry. For the quality of oil you get, it's an excellent value, I would highly recommend!
- 1 small onion, chopped
- Tomatillo Salsa or Salsa Verde: we used a homemade tomatillo salsa for this queso, but this great tomatillo salsa you can get online here is the perfect addition too!
- Velveeta Cheese: You can use creamy Velveeta for this recipe, or another melty cheese alternative. You can use a plant-based cheese for a vegan substitute as well.
- No Salt Added Diced Tomatoes: I only use no salt added diced tomatoes , these boxed tomatoes are really great to stock up on! I like boxed tomatoes better because they are BPA free and more eco-friendly than aluminum cans. If you haven't read about the dangers of consuming foods stored in BPA cans, head over to Nutrition Facts to read more.
- No Salt Added Black Beans: Use no salt added or low sodium beans for better flavor and control of the salt in this dish (the cheese is salty!!!). I only use low or no sodium beans in my recipes. You can always add salt in, but it's impossible to take out.
- Chili Powder: for a really nice flavor in this dip – the chili powder isn't spicy but will give you a rich and bright flavor.
- Cumin : also adds a really nice flavor to this recipe – cumin has a lightly smokey flavor found in a lot of chili recipes.
Make Velveeta Queso Gluten Free!
This gluten free Velveeta Queso recipe is a simple meal to make without the wheat – Velveeta is gluten free, believe it or not! I'm all about making recipes gluten free when I can. Gluten free cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It's quite the opposite when done right. By building meals around gluten free pantry staples and swapping in a few wheat-less ingredients you can make healthier meals for you and your family. I made a list of my 125 favorite gluten free pantry ingredients that we use on a weekly basis, and check out all my gluten free recipes here that are on The Herbeevore . These easy and healthy recipes are fantastic meals for everyone at your table.
