Chili con Queso Dinner

1 lb smoked sausage, cubed

1 medium onion, chopped

2 can chopped tomatoes (with juice)*

1 can whole green chilies*

1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

¼ tsp black pepper

½ tsp salt

¼ cup sour cream

*I used one can of diced tomatoes w/ green chilies the first time I made this & it was REALLY spicy. Next time, I will use 1 can of chopped tomatoes & a ½ can of diced green chilies and use the other half to make Strickland Style Chili Rellenos.

1. Cook the sausage and onion in a skillet on medium heat , stiring occasionally, until the sausage is browned and the onion is softened.

2. Add the tomatoes and green chilies. Cook for a couple of minutes, until the tomatoes are soft.

3. Add the cheese and cook until cheese is melted.

4. Stir in the salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if desired.

5. Stir in the sour cream. Serve hot with tortilla chips or spoon onto crusty French or Italian bread.
