This recipe makes ~5 cups 

Directions:

  1. Cut the Velveeta into cubes and place them in a microwave-safe bowl.
  2. Add the undrained Rotel to the bowl.
  3. Microwave in short intervals, stirring between each, until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
  4. Line a freeze dryer tray with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  5. Pour approximately 2.5 lbs of the dip onto each tray.
  6. Pre-freeze when possible.
  7. Freeze dry.
  8. Put the freeze dried cheese dip in a blender and powder it.
  9. Store in jars or in mylar bags.

Rehydration:

Combine powdered cheese dip with hot water at a 1:1 ratio.  Stir until it reaches a smooth consistency. 

Notes:

For a thicker, scoopable dip, use less water. If you prefer a smoother, pourable consistency for drizzling over nachos, add more water as needed.  

Freeze-dried nacho cheese powder also makes a great addition to skillet meals, enhancing dishes with a rich, cheesy flavor.
