About this recipe for chili con queso
Football and snack food go together like FSU and the National Championship 2014 title. (Yes, I absolutely HAD to go there. Sorry, not sorry.) THIS dip, this amazing chorizo chili con queso, is everything a game day snack should be. It is rich and cheesy, perfectly meaty, and packed with a ton of flavor. Plus, it can be made boozy (!!!) if you add in tequila. It most definitely belongs on the table at your next football watching, trash talkin’, food munchin’ gathering. 
Oh, and did I mention this Mexican cheese sauce is perfectly golden, with a smidgen of garnet if you squint *just* right at the diced tomatoes" Is that a sign or what" I’m gonna go ahead and say yes. Go Noles!
