When football season started this year, my parents and I decided to switch hosting watching the Broncos at our houses. I happened to get our Monday night game against the Houston Texans. We were coming off a two weekends in a row losing streak, so we needed a win. The Broncos did win and so did this dish!
I've had (Uncle) Joe's Cheese Boat several times growing up, but had never made it myself. I thought that watching a football game was the perfect time to make it! It was pretty easy and delicious! The only thing that took a while was the prep work. There's a lot of chopping and dicing that goes into this yummy dip! Never fear though! I have a handy dandy chopper. Mine is from Princess House and one of my favorite gadgets in the kitchen. I use it all the time! Here are a couple similar ones at Bed Bath and Beyond and Target. My chopper has two different dicing sizes. I used the bigger one for the green pepper and onion and the smaller one for the jalapenos. Since everything was going to be mixed together anyway, I let the chopper store it all until I was ready for it. It saves me lots of time and annoyance!
Matt missed out since he was working, but my parents and I enjoyed it. I will definitely be making this again and maybe one day I'll be able to make it as good as my Uncle Joe!
