Steps:
- Put oven on high broil, and place a whole poblano pepper on a small sheet pan. Broil until it's charred on each side (about 10 minutes total). Remove from oven and cover with foil, allow the pepper to steam for 5 minutes, this helps the skin easily peel off. Peel the skin off the poblano pepper, then dice, discarding the seeds.
- Preheat oven to 400F degrees
- In a cast iron skillet, over medium/high heat, add in the chorizo. Cook the chorizo fully through, breaking it up into smaller pieces as it cooks. Use a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Lower the heat to medium, add in avocado oil, diced onion and roasted poblano peppers. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 4 minutes. Add onion and poblanos to the chorizo bowl and mix together.
- Turn the heat off and add half the grated cheese to the bottom of the skillet evenly. On top of the cheese, add in the chorizo, onion, poblano mix, and evenly spread. Add the rest of the cheese on top.
- Place in the oven for 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is browned and bubbling.
- Remove from the oven, garnish with cilantro and roma tomatoes, and serve immediately in the cast iron skillet.
- Use tortilla chips or scoop the queso fundido into warmed tortillas. Enjoy!

- Use good quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the dip will taste. Use fresh chorizo, pepper jack cheese, and cream cheese.
- Don't overcook the chorizo: Chorizo is a spicy sausage that can easily become dry and crumbly if it is overcooked. Cook it just until it is browned and cooked through.

- Serve the dip with your favorite dippers: Tortilla chips, crackers, and vegetables are all great options.
- Make the dip ahead of time: This dip can be made up to 2 days ahead of time. Simply store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
