Ingredients

1 Tbsp. olive oil

1 sweet onion, diced

1 jalapeno pepper, diced

1 14-oz. can stewed tomatoes, or stew 3 of your own fresh tomatoes

4 cups Monterey Jack cheese, grated

One quarter cup light cream

Directions

Heat olive oil in a skillet and saute onion until tender. Add tomatoes and pepper and cook for 10 to 15 minutes. Add cheese and cream and continue to heat for several minutes stirring continuously. Serve warm with tortilla chips. You may substitute any kind or pepper for the jalapeno such as like serrano or Anaheim depending on how hot you like you would like the dip to be. Jalapeno peppers have a heat index of 5.5 on a scale of 1-10.

Serrano peppers rate a 7 and Anaheim rates a mild 2-3. The big bad Habanero pepper rates a 9, so be careful if you select this super-hot pepper.

The Skinny: Use low-fat milk and cheese and substitute fat free Half and Half for the cream. You could serve the dip with fat free tortilla chips or even sliced veggies such as carrots or celery to cut out some fat and calories.

Yeah! I used to gorge on this stuff when I lived in Austin! I'll have to try making it at home now. :) Thanks for posting. Hope you don't mind I added you as a friend. Thanks for your nice comment on my Mom's cobbler recipe.
