List of Ingredients




1 cup tortilla chips, crushed
3 Tbs. butter melted
2 (8 oz. each) package cream cheese softened
2 eggs
1 (4 oz.) can diced green chiles
1 fresh jalepeno pepper, cored, seeded, diced
4 oz. Colby cheese, shredded
4 oz. Monterey Jack Cheese, shredded
1/4 cup sour cream
chopped tomatoes
chopped green onions

Recipe



Preheat oven to 325°. In medium bowl, combine tortilla chips and butter. Press into bottom of 9-inch spring form pan. Bake 15 minutes; remove from oven leaving oven on.

In large bowl, blend cream cheese and eggs. Add green chiles, jalepeno, Colby and Monterey jack. Pour over crust and bake 30 minutes. Do not over cook.

Remove from oven and cool in pan 5 minutes. Run knife around inside edge and remove sides from pan. Spread sour cream over top and decorate with tomatoes, green onions, and olives. Serve with tortilla chips. (I serve this with a variety of crackers)

Serves 10 to 12.

Note: At my house, this serves about 6.
