Serving Ingredients

Method

Prepare the Chorizo

  1. 1

    Cook the Chorizo

    In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the spicy chorizo sausage. Cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat and set aside.

Make the Cheese Dip

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes with green chilies, and milk. Stir continuously until the mixture is melted and smooth.

  2. 3

    Add Spices

    Once the cheese is melted, stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  3. 4

    Mix in Chorizo

    Add the cooked chorizo to the cheese mixture and stir until evenly combined. Continue heating on low until warmed through.
