It's definitely a good recipe, but there was way too much garlic. Also, I only used two poblano peppers and that was more than enough (this definitely depends on the size of the pepper; mine were on the bigger side). Don't get me wrong, this recipe is great, but not Qdoba great. I think just lose the garlic or keep it to one teaspoon and you've got more than a copycat, but an exact replica. Thanks!

Cheese generally doesn't melt well so I recommend getting a packet of sodium citrate, it's easy to get off of Amazon. Dissolve the sodium citrate in water corresponding to how much queso you want to make (it's easy to find the ratios online). Then you can melt the cheese and add whatever ingredients you want.

The recipe as is will be quite clumpy as the Jack and Cheddar cheese do not necessarily melt smooth. melt 2 tablespoons butter and add 1 tablespoon of corn starch. Cook on medium to med-low heat until smooth, stirring frequently. Mix in with the queso and it will have the consistency you are looking for. Also, I like some kick in mine, so sometimes go with serrano or hot jalapeno peppers.

I live with my husband in Joliet, IL. I'm a network administrator and also teach step aerobics. My hobby during warmer weather is my vegetable garden. I love to cook and make up interesting recipes. I've recently been put on a restricted diet. No dairy, gluten, wheat, oats, sugar. So, I'm looking for ways to spice up my meals. I cook non-restricted meals often as my husband can eat whatever he wants and I love to cook for him. But, once a week, I make him something "interesting" and healthy and he has to at least try it. So far, it's been a big hit.
