The grated cheese we used contains easy melt and traditional mozzarella, cheddar and Romano cheeses. Try adding 1⁄4 cup pickled sliced jalapenos to the cooked filling for a spicy kick.

Ingredients

Add spice mix. Cook, stirring for 1 minute. Add tomatoes. Bring to boil. Stir in onions and coriander. Remove.
