These are the best "con queso" squares I've ever eaten and I've had a lot of them. I think the little bit of flour is what makes them so much better, as this is the only recipe for them that I've ever seen with the flour. These are great appetizers and can be served warm, hot or room temperature. * Exported from MasterCook * Chile con Queso Squares Recipe By : HLS&R Cookbook bySuzanne Epps Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Appetizers Cheese Mexican Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 can (4oz.) green chiles -- seeded & diced 1 pound Monterey jack cheese -- coarsely grated 1 pound cheddar cheese -- coarsely grated 4 large eggs -- separated 2/3 cup evaporated milk 1 Tablespoon flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon pepper 2 Roma tomatoes -- sliced (optional) Preheat oven to 325-deg.
