The Original Mexicali Dip

Before there was Rotel, there was the original Mexicali Dip that I've been making since the 70's. It was probably first published in a "womans" magazine such as Ladies Home Journal or Good Housekeeping.  So many of my favorite recipes came from the monthly magazines.  I cut and taped the recipes into a notebook.   This recipe is still a Super Bowl favorite and a Foley favorite for any occasion.  



1 16 oz. package of Velveeta cheese
1 14 oz. can petite diced tomatoes, drained
1 4 oz. can chopped green chilies, undrained
1 tablespoon dried minced onion

Cube Velveeta cheese and place all ingredients in a microwave safe dish with a cover.

Microwave for 4 minutes, stir to combine all ingredients.

Microwave for an additional 3 minutes to make sure cheese has melted.

Serve in a small chafing dish with tortilla chips.
