- 1 pound white american cheese shredded
- ½ cup half and half more if desired
- ½ -1 tablespoon oil
- 1 jalapeño seeds removed, diced
- ¼ small purple onion diced
- 1 roma tomato diced
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro more or less to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Tortilla chips
In a large skillet, heat oil, then sauté jalapeño and onion until the pepper is tender and the onion is translucent.
Reduce the heat to medium low and add in all of the shredded white american cheese and stir constantly.
When the cheese is nearly melted, begin stirring in half and half. I used about 1/2 cup to get the desired consistency. Use more or less to get the consistency that you’re looking for.
Add in diced tomato, chopped cilantro, and black pepper. Stir until everything is incorporated and the dip is smooth and creamy.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, tortillas, or veggies.
Enjoy!
