Walking… what? YEP. You heard me, Easy Queso Walking Tacos… I mean doesn’t it sound too good to be true? Well believe me guys these are exactly what you want to be making for Super Bowl as well as a way to spice up Taco Night! Easy Queso Walking Tacos are going to be your new fun and delicious go to!
So what is a walking taco? A walking taco is typically where you fill a small Frito bag with all your favorite taco fillings– and you are good to go! Making it easy to eat and individually portioned for a room full of guests. However, this version I skipped the pre bagged chips that are filled with not the best ingredients and instead used a tortilla chip brand & corn scoopers I can trust. Then stuffed with with scrumptious taco fillings & HGHF Easy Instant Pot Queso! Truly cannot get much better than this!
What is the HGHF Easy Instant Pot Queso?
I LOVE Queso…. like to the point where I would eat Queso all day long 🙂 I mean we all have those foods right? Now….. that is where I come to this conversation. The velveta cheese. The processed cheese. After so many times trying to make queso without velveta it always ended up clumpy, stringy, and ends up not the consistency we want. Then I would need to do a roux to try to thicken it without the cheese being string–it all just didn’t do it justice! Plus if you don’t want gluten in it, the roux isn’t for you.
I am here to tell you, I will always love my instant pot, especially because it brought me the queso dip with ZERO processed cheese, gluten free & EASY as all get out. The KEY to making the queso is buying BLOCKED cheese, not the pre shredded cheese. Pre shredded cheese have preservatives in it to make it not clump in the bag. Therefore, when you used in dips like queso– it will not bind together causing it to be stringy, because of the preservatives.
Here is the recipe for the Easy Instant Pot Queso Dip & watch the video below to see how easy it is to make!
