my dad got this from a friend of his who was from mexico. easy to make, no cooking involved, just a lot of chopping. it tastes amazing and the ingredients are unique
Ingredients:
2 tomatoes, for slicing
2 green bell peppers
1 (8 ounce) package monterey jack cheese
1 (8 ounce) package cheddar cheese (optional)
1/2 of an onion
2 jalapeno peppers
1 serrano pepper (optional)
1 bunch cilantro
2 lemons, juice of
Directions:
1. About the ingredients:.
2. -for the CHEDDAR CHEESE- extra, medium, or mild sharpness doesn't matter, which ever the cook prefers.
3. -the SERRANO PEPPER is good to use if you want the recipe to be really spicy.
4. -for the LEMON JUICE you can use the kind you buy in the bottle or the real thing.
5. -Finely chop all of the ingredients except the cilantro(a blender is NOT a good idea for this recipe).
6. -Mix the ingredients together.
7. -Then add the lemon juice to the mix.
8. -Stir the ingredients so that they are evenly mixed.
9. -Finally, chop up the cilantro and stir the pieces into the mix.
10. -Now you are ready to serve this recipe as a dip for tortilla chips (the final result should keep the ingredients in their solid, chopped forms, so it is not mushy or liquidy like most dips or like salsa).
11. -Store in the refrigerator.
12. -Keeps for several days.
