Quick Queso Fundido with Roasted Chipotle Cauliflower

Getting together to share a meal with family and friends is very important in Mexican culture, maybe done once a week and is a great opportunity to catch up and spend time together. The food that is served takes a very important place in these gatherings, normally everybody brings a dish and food is shared in the middle of the table. These meals always start with a nice “botana” or “snack” , something small to enjoy before the main meal. This is always a good introduction to what’s to come and an opportunity to share some tequilas while catching up! Our Quick Queso Fundido with Roasted Cauliflower is the perfect botana to share at such a meal! Queso fundido, if you aren’t already familiar, is a very popular snack in Mexico. What’s not to love about cheesy deliciousness melted in a skillet under the grill?! Often you will find queso recipes with chorizo as in our Chipotle Queso Fundido recipe. In this recipe we use roasted cauliflower flavoured with Gran Luchito Chipotle Honey glaze and a bit of Smoky Chipotle Fajita and Taco Mix. This gives heavenly roasted flavour edges to the cauliflower and when served with the melted gruyere is just a match made in Mexican heaven. Served with warm tortillas, guacamole and a bit of fresh salsa. Our Slow-Cooked Chicken Enchiladas make for the perfect main to share with family and/or friends. We hope that you enjoy this version on your next get together or a Friday night treat for you and your family.
