Creamy cheese and crispy chorizo make a deliciously addicting dip perfect for any party.

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Dice the onion. Halve the peppers, remove the seeds, and dice into small pieces.

  2. In a skillet over medium-high heat add the olive oil. Sauté the onion, chorizo, green chiles, and half of the bell pepper. Sauté for 5-7 min. until chorizo is golden brown and onions and peppers are soft.

  3. In an ovenproof bowl or baking dish, add 1 cup mozzarella and 1 cup Beemster Farmer’s Choice. Add the chorizo mixture on top of the cheese and finish with an even layer of the remaining 1 cup Beemster and 1 cup mozzarella cheese. 

  4. Bake for 15 min. until cheese is melted and bubbling. Top with remaining half of the diced red bell pepper and cilantro. Serve immediately with a side of veggies and crusty toasted bread.
