Ingredients

1 pound chorizo sausage
1 teaspoon taco seasoning
1/4 cup white onion diced
1 jalapeno pepper diced (optional)
2 Tablespoons green chiles chopped
10 ounces white American processed cheese Try Land O Lakes or El Viajero
6- ounce pepper jack cheese
1/2 cup whole milk
2 Tablespoon fresh cilantro chopped
1 Roma tomatoes diced
8 cups Frito Scoops or tortillo chips

Instructions

Heat medium sauce pan to medium high. Add chorizo and diced onions (and jalapeno). Saute' until chorizo is no longer pink and onions are translucent. Drain fat and add taco seasoning. Stir to combine. Set aside.
Melt cheeses and milk in a microwave safe bowl in 1 minute intervals, stirring after each minute, until cheese is melted. Stir in green chilies.
To Serve: I prefer to add the melted cheese mixture to a serving bowl. Spoon chorizo mixture in center. Top with tomato and cilantro for a pretty little restaurant- style presentation. (or if you prefer just mix the whole thing together! It's more than likely going to be mixed together once Big Daddy gets in....er, I mean..... never mind...) Serve with Frito Scoops or tortillo chips
