Keep and eye on this easy mexican cheese dip and stir often to avoid burning.
Add salt to taste, keep in mind that there is salt in the cheese and on most tortilla chips.
I recommend avoiding using White Velveeta for this recipe as it has a very distinct flavor that will distract from the freshness of the toppings. It will still the Ground Beef Nacho with Queso Blanco show.
