Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 lb bulk pork and bacon sausage blend
1 c chopped sweet yellow onion
1 large poblano pepper, rough chopped
2 ears sweet corn, kernels removed
10 oz diced tomato with green chilies
1 large chipotle pepper in adobo, minced
1 Tbsp minced garlic
1 tsp liquid smoke flavoring
1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
6 oz cream cheese, cubed
5 oz santa fe flavored cream cheese cooking creme blend
1 c velveeta shreds, original flavor
1 c velveeta shreds, pepper jack flavor
3/4 c chopped cilantro, divided use
12 oz small whole wheat elbow macaroni
1 Tbsp kosher salt
1 c cherry tomatoes, cut in half lengthwise
3/4 c crushed thin tortilla chips
1 c shredded pepper jack cheese with a touch of philadelphia

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350º F. In a large skillet on medium, brown the sausage, for about 5 minutes, breaking with a spoon while it cooks, then add the onions and poblano pepper and saute another 5 minutes. Drain meat, onions and peppers and add back to the skillet. Discard drippings.
  • 2. With heat on low, add the corn, tomato, chipotle pepper, garlic, liquid smoke, worcestershire, cream cheese, cooking creme, both cheese shreds and 1/2 cup cilantro and mix well. Turn off heat when all cheese is melted.
  • 3. Cook macaroni in 4 quarts boiling water with the salt. Cook, slowly boiling, for 8 minutes, drain and add to the skillet. Mix well and pour into a 2-1/2 or 3 quart casserole dish. Spread cherry tomatoes over the top, and the chips then spread the shredded cheese evenly over the top. Bake for 30 minutes, covering loosely with a foil tent if it begins to brown too quickly. Remove from oven, garnish with remaining cilantro and serve.
