Notes

  • Cheese: Use any cheese you like! I use Colby Jack Cheese but feel free to use Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, or Cheddar.
  • Salsa: Use your favorite salsa. I prefer to use a refrigerated fresh salsa that you can find in the produce area at the grocery store.
  • Can I make this spicy? Yes! Add some cayenne pepper or chili powder in with the other seasonings. Use a packet of hot taco seasoning. Top the servings with jalapeño. Add a can of diced green chilies into the casserole.
