Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup diced yellow onion
  • 1 large jalapeno, seeded and diced

  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

  • 4 ounce can diced green chiles, drained

Instructions

  • Add the olive oil to a skillet and place over MEDIUM heat. Add the onion and jalapeno and cook, stirring, for several minutes to soften. Remove from heat and set aside.
