Making the Spinach Queso Dip
In a pan add olive oil and then the minced garlic. Cook this for just a few minutes to get the flavor of garlic to come alive. Now add the cream cheese and mix until it is all melted and combined with the garlic. The spinach goes next, but you want the spinach to be dry not wet. Just take a thawed box of frozen spinach and press it in a strainer until the liquid is gone. You can also squeeze it in some cheese cloth, works too.

Now throw in the tomatoes and green chilis and mix them around to give this dip a really flavorful taste.

Now its time to add the cheese, not just one, but two kinds for all that delicious cheesy flavor tht is in this dip. Just dump them right on, but keep some of the cheddar for the top.
