Chorizo sopas with cotija cheese.
I’ve loved the flavor of chorizo ever since I went to a chili cook-off last year and they used it in a recipe. But I wasn’t sure how to use it. Then I got a little inspiration (thank you Lisette), and I discovered cotija cheese. (It’s a mexican style cheese that is delicious!) Here are two chorizo appetizers that are quick and easy.
Chorizo Sopas
- 6-12 sopas
- 1/2 pound chorizo
- 2 cups diced potatoes
- 1/4 cup cotija cheese
Peel potatoes and dice. Then begin cooking in a little bit of water. Meanwhile, cook chorizo in a medium skillet. Once potatoes are cookies, combine with potatoes. Using veggie oil, cook sopas according to package. Once heated, fill with potato and chorizo mixture and top with cheese. Eat right away!
Chorizo Roll-Ups
- 1/4 pound chorizo
- Crescent rolls in a can
- 1/3 cup cheese (cotija, cheddar, etc.)
Cook chorizo in a medium pan. Meanwhile, preheat oven according to the crescent roll can. Once chorizo is cooked through, unroll crescent rolls. Next, fill with chorizo and cheese (don’t overfill). Roll up and cook 10-12 minutes at 350°.
