Rajas con Queso image

A very, very simple dish to make that is very difficult to stop eating. The spiciness of the peppers, sweetness of the corn, and the creamy cheesiness pair together perfectly. Can be used in place of a protein in most any Mexican dish.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I omit the poblano peppers from this recipe. It's still delicious without them.
