I love queso! When we have Mexican dishes this is a must. When we go out for Mexican, I always order the largest bowl they have. I love it with chips and I usually put some on my entree. I know, I know...not the healthiest. This recipe is a good one. This is my entry for Random Recipes. Check it out, they have some very good food going on over there!

This sounds like something I could really eat way too much of! It is never to late to post, thank you for sharing and joining in on the fun!
What does Queso mean? Whenever I go to a Mexican Restaurant (remember I am from Ohio now) I never understand anything. I usually like what I get, but the next time I never remember what I had. Also could I substitute something for the cheese product, I can't think what cheese product tastes like and they don't have anything like it here. Does it melt stringy or smooth? Is it sharp or mild or salty?
I also read your question about cheating. I am surprised the teacher had such a reaction. If I understand correctly your daughter was threatened by the other child and that could be considered bullying. It should be nipped in the bud. Moving this child isn't enough Goober needs help not just with math, also learning how to ask for help from someone who should be there (as you said, the teacher or another adult) to get through the difficult problems. I am not sure compliment is what this is, it seems strange to me. I feel that you are right to wonder.
I love Mexican food - but I haven't heard of Queso. Is it possible I know it by another name? What is it?
Queso means cheese in Spanish. This is usually served with chips as an appetizer. Sometimes they pour it over chimichangas..does that sound familiar?
I love the stuff!
