Directions:
- Place cheese and milk in the top of a double boiler over simmering (not boiling) water.
- Heat very slowly, stirring frequently, until cheese is smooth and melted.
- Use slightly more than half of the 10-ounce package of spinach for the dip. Save remaining spinach for another use.
- Thoroughly drain spinach to be used in con queso, squeezing out as much moisture as possible.
- Stir spinach, bell pepper, onions and tomatoes into cheese mixture. Mix well.
- Cook, covered, over simmering (not boiling) water about 15 minutes.
- Serve as a dip for fresh tortillas that have been cut in triangles and fried in vegetable oil.
