I doubled the recipe and it was still gone in a flash. Next time I'll have to triple it!

Meh. It was okay but I've definitely had better. The cheese wasn't as smooth as I would have liked.

I'm not a huge fan of Tex-Mex food but this chili con queso was surprisingly good. The flavor was well-balanced and the cheese was nice and melted.

The chili con queso was a little spicy for my taste but still very enjoyable. I served it with chips, salsa and guacamole and it was a hit at my party.

Not a fan. The flavor was bland and the consistency was too thick. I think I'll stick with my usual chili recipe.

I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious this was! I'm not usually a fan of chili but this was an exception. The Tex-Mex flavors were on point and the cheese was gooey and melted perfectly.
