4 oz. mild cheddar or pepperjack cheese, shredded
4 oz cream cheese, cubed
1 – 2 jalapenos, deseeded and minced (optional)
4 oz. can green chiles, drained

Optional Toppings:
Chopped fresh cilantro
Sliced fresh or pickled jalapenos

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. In a cast iron skillet (or other deep-sided, oven-proof skillet), evenly arrange and layer the cubed Velveeta, shredded cheese, cream cheese, jalapenos if using, green chiles, Ro-Tel, and Paisley Farm Cowboy Caviar.
  3. Sprinkle the salt and pepper, cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder over the top of everything.
  4. Next, evenly pour the milk over the top of the mixture. At this point, there is no need to mix the ingredients yet.
  5. Bake at 375 for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the mixture begins to bubble. Carefully remove from the oven and stir everything together. Bake for another 5 to 10 minutes until everything is melted together and the top is slightly bubbly.
  6. Serve with your favorite chips and enjoy!
