3 Ingredient Cheesy Queso Sauce

This is the perfect 3 ingredient cheesy queso sauce to send any meal over the top! I love to make this sauce with cooked chicken and pasta. You mix all the sauce, chicken and pasta together and you have the perfect meal! I have a recipe with this sauce, chicken and pasta called Easy Cheesy Chicken Mac & Cheese. Y’all should give it a try!

My family loved this sauce or even I call it a dip for chips or to eat with a spoon! LOL

We love to add browned breakfast sausage to this sauce and eat it as a dip with tortilla chips. Or, even to add to a taco or burrito is really delicious!

Can I add meat to my queso sauce?

YES! Most definitely can you add any cooked meats or pastas to this sauce, here a few ideas:

• browned breakfast sausage
• browned ground beef, ground chicken or ground turkey
• browned Italian sausage
• can of chili or chili with beans
• can of tamales
• add any kind of canned beans
• chopped pepperonis or diced ham

ANOTHER, great idea is to add cooked pasta to your queso sauce, for example: any kind of noodles like elbow, bowtie, rotini, shells or spaghetti noodles will taste great and make a complete meal!
