List of Ingredients




1/4 cup butter
2 onions, chopped
4 to 6 jalapeno chiles, seeded and minced
1/2 cup chopped red pepper
4 to 6 garlic cloves
4 medium tomatoes, seeded and chopped
4 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 tsp. black pepper
1/2 tsp. chile powder
1 tsp. paprika
1/2 tsp. salt
1-1/2 cups half-and-half
3 Tbs. flour
Tortilla chips


Recipe



In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add
the onions and saute until tender, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Add the jalapeno chiles, red peppers, garlic and tomatoes.
Continue to cook over medium heat until the vegetables are
tender and the tomatoes have released their juices, about 10
minutes. (This can be prepared to this point, cooled and
refrigerated for later use.) Over low heat, melt the cheeses
with the vegetable mixture, and add the cayenne pepper, black pepper, chile powder, paprika and salt. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the half-and-half and flour, and slowly stir into the cheese mixture. Continue to heat, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is fully melted. Add more cream, if necessary, if the mixture thickens too much. Serve warm to drizzle over tortilla chips.
