1 tablespoon dijon mustard<br />
2 teaspoons curry powder<br />
1 teaspoon ground cumin<br />
Kosher salt<br />

3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (1 1/2 to 1 3/4 pounds) cut into 1-inch-wide strips<br />
1 bunch broccoli, cut into florets<br />
3/4 cup ketchup<br />
Juice of 1 lime<br />
<b>2. Steps</b><br />

Thanks for coming to my blog! Today, I'm making a recipe called, Quality Queso! This is perfect for any occasion, and is sure to make people give that, "MMMMMMMMM!!!" sound! First, the ingredients you need are:<br />
2 sticks of cream cheese or 1 box of Velveeta<br />
1 can of Rotel or 2 cans of diced tomatoes<br />
1 pound of breakfast sausage<br />
Milk<br />
Crock Pot<br />
Your first step is to cook the sausage.. Next, turn the Crock Pot to high heat. Then, you need to cut the Velveeta or cream cheese into 1 inch squares. Add 1-2 cups of milk and the cheese. While melting, make sure you stir the cheese so that it doesn't stick and char to the bottom of the Crock Pot. Once all of the cheese is melted, add your tomatoes and sausage. Stir until mixture is thick.<br />
<br />
Enjoy your very Quality Queso! And remember, you got it from me! Just kidding!
