POBLANO PICO GRILLED CHEESE

Spicy, melty grilled cheese made with poblano peppers, onions, garlic tomatoes, and cilantro sauteed together and pilled on buttered bread with monetary jack cheese and grilled to a golden crispy crust.

I think I’m on to something here. I was thinking… What the heck am I going to make for dinner tonight? I remembered that I had a couple of poblano peppers hanging out in the fridge. I thought that would make a killer grilled cheese. It was delicious, but I think next time I will add some roast beef or some fajita meat. Doing what I can with the groceries I have left. I told you my blog was gonna get crazy, lol
