1 (12 ounce) package mexican chorizo sausage, sausage
1 (12 ounce) asadero cheese, shredded (or use Chihuahua or Monterey Jack cheese)
1 green pepper, sliced thin
1 bunch green onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1 (8 ounce) package corn tortillas or 1 (8 ounce) package flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300ºF. Remove the chorizo's case and heat it in a large skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink, for about 6 to 7 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and spoon off most of the fat. Slice cheese into 1-inch cubes and place half in a 2-quart casserole dish.
  • Top with half the chorizo, the green peppers and remaining cheese. Top with remaining chorizo.
  • Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until creamy and bubbly. Remove from oven.
  • Top mixture with green onions and cilantro.
  • Serve immediately using a spoon to serve on the tortillas. Mmmm -- delicious.
