Cheese Dip (White Nacho Dip)


1/2 onion, chopped
1 tablespoon oil
5 cups (20 ounces) shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup chopped canned hot peppers, such as jalapeno peppers
2 firm tomatoes, peeled
Tortilla chips, for serving


Heat oil in a deep pan and saute onions for about 5 minutes or until they start to soften.

 Reduce heat to low-medium low and add cheese, cream, and peppers. Cook and stir until mixture melts and becomes a creamy sauce.

 Cut tomatoes in half and scrape out the seeds; discard seeds. Slice flesh into thin strips (about 1/4-inch wide and 1-2 inches long) and stir into sauce.

 Warm tortilla chips on a tray in the oven at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until hot. Pour the cheese sauce into a serving dish and serve warm, with the heated chips.
