Hi there

Does anybody have a chili con queso recipe?
Thankyou

this is not TM, but probably could easily convert, here it is:

Chilli Con Queso Dip:

Ingredients:
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon chilli powder
1 onion, finely chopped
1/2 capsicum, finely chopped
2 tomatoes, finely chopped
500g Kraft processed cheese
1 can evaporated milk (185ml?)

Method:
Fry chopped onions with pepper, paprika and chilli powder. Add finely chopped tomatoes, capsicum and oregano.
Grate cheese and add to ingredients, add evapourated milk and simmer unti cheese has melted.
For best flavour, cook, cool and reheat. Serve with corn chips, sour cream and spring onions.

You were able to put your hands on that recipe CP63 so quickly, you must have a much better filing system than me 

[CreamPuff63]

the filing system is called "Its Good or Its Out!"

So you must have tried it then - more understandable that you knew where it was. If you are anything like me, you have hundreds of recipes torn out of this or that magazine or paper - they are the ones that are hard to find when you want them.

They certainly are. I can spend hours looking through my pile of torn out recipes to try. I have started typing out the ones we like and putting them in a file.  So far this has taken me 5 years and I am no where near finished. As I type some I collect more. I do love looking through them and deciding what to make.

I have files made up and each cut of meat has its own pocket.  On the outside I give each one a number and list them for easier access - there are hundreds of them (83 in the chicken fillet pocket alone) and I must confess to not even looking at them since I've had the TMX.  Think of the converting I could do from that collection alone, let alone all the cookbooks and other loose bits and pieces I collect along the way.  I did think of throwing them away without a second glance but I just can't get myself to do it as there was hours of work just setting them up in the first place.  If I thought someone would like them I'd give them to the first person passing through.

Welcome Charmie - hope you are able to convert the recipe and post your thoughts. 

My recipe filing system, like most things in my office, is in need of sorting - think I need a Good or Go policy too
