A can of already diced tomatoes and green chilies along with a block of melted Velveeta can be an extra fancy party dip when you add pieces of shrimp!

Ingredients
Shrimp
6
oz
Water
2
Pound(s)
32 ounces Shrimp
1 ½
teaspoon
salt
Dip
Original RoTel
10 oz
2
Pound(s)
32 oz Velveeta Cheese
Prepared Shrimp
Tortilla Chips
Instructions
Prepare the Shrimp:
If you use a package of precooked salad shrimp, they are ready! Just drain them.
If, however, you buy or catch fresh shrimp, they will need to be cooked and most likely chopped.
Boiled or steamed works just fine. De-head, de-shell, and de-vein them. Then, chop them into small pieces.
Prepare the Dip:
Cube Velveeta into large microwavable bowl.
Add RoTel
Microwave on high, stirring every 30-60 seconds until all the cheese is melted. Be very careful that you don't burn it.
Add in the prepared shrimp, stir well.
Serve with Tortilla chips.
Notes
I like to liquefy the RoTel in my food processor before adding it to the Velveeta, but it isn't necessary.
