Tips & Techniques

  • High Altitude (3500-6500 ft):

    In step 3, cover and cook on High about 35 minutes.

  • Success

    Cut cheese into same-sized chunks so they’ll melt evenly during cooking.

  • Time Saver

    To cut down on some of the chopping, thaw 2 cups from a bag of frozen stir-fry bell pepper blend to use in place of the fresh version.

  • Special Touch

    Multicolored tortilla chips lend a splash of Southwest color.
