Ingredients
- 2 poblano peppers roasted, can substitute green peppers
- 2 roma tomatoes roasted, medium sized
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 6 oz Monterey Jack
- 4 oz Swiss cheese
- 6 oz American cheese
- ½ teaspoon garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450℉.
- Halve and deseed the green bell peppers (or poblano peppers) and Roma tomatoes. Place them, cut side down, on a foil-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 15 minutes until the skins slightly blacken. Allow them to cool for 5 minutes, then peel and dice them.
- In a small saucepan, combine heavy cream, Monterey Jack, Swiss cheese, White American cheese. Heat over low to medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to melt and blend the cheeses. Be vigilant to prevent burning.
- Stir in minced garlic, paprika, cayenne, salt, and the roasted veggies. Heat for a few minutes until the ingredients are thoroughly combined and heated through.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and serve the warm cheese dip with chips.
Notes
- Maintain a low to medium-low heat when melting the cheese to prevent scorching.
- Stir the cheese mixture regularly to ensure even melting and to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- As soon as the cheese is melted and well combined, remove the saucepan from heat to prevent overcooking and preferably transfer to a serving dish.
- Store the cheese dip in an airtight container for up to 3 days. When reheating, do it gently over low heat to prevent the cheese from becoming grainy or separating.
