Instructions

Step one

Preheat oven to 375°F.

Step two

In a large skillet, brown the ground meat over medium heat. Drain the excess fat. Add the onion and minced garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes more.

Step three

Add all seasonings, water, and one can of Red Gold Mild Diced Tomatoes + Green Chilies (do not drain). Let the mixture simmer until most of the liquid has reduced, remove from heat.

Step four

In a cast iron skillet or oven-safe dish, layer the cream cheese, melting cheese, cubed sharp cheddar, cooked meat mixture, diced green chilies, and one can of drained Red Gold Original Diced Tomatoes + Green Chilies.

Step five

Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Remove from oven, stir everything together, and top with reserved shredded cheddar cheese and jalapeno slices. Return to the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes until the top is bubbly and golden brown.

Step six

Serve hot with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or toasted bread.
