Notes
- Chorizo: (I typically am unable to drain any excess grease from chorizo..if needed grab a paper towel and soak up some of the grease around the chorizo after it’s cooked.
- Tip: Remove about 2 tablespoons of chorizo from the skillet to save to garnish the top of the queso after baking**
- Diced Green Chiles: for more heat, substitute with fresh jalapeno, leave the seeds and membranes for more heat. Or use another Chile of choice.
