My daughter, Haley, called me from San Francisco and said a friend of hers was looking for Velveeta all over in San Francisco and went to three different places and couldn’t find it. So, I happened to go to the grocery later that day and our grocery store stocked Velveeta cheese. I guess she was right thinking this was a “San Francisco thing.” So, let’s think about a healthy queso dip recipe.
