1 cup Each: chopped celery and green bell pepper (see note)

1/4 cup Finely chopped jalape=F1o (see note)

Preparation

While cheese is melting, combine onion, celery, bell pepper and jalape=F1o in saucepan and add 1/4 cup water. Saut‚ over medium heat until vegetables come to a light boil. When cheese has melted and is smooth, add vegetables and mix thoroughly. Simmer 5 minutes. This makes a large amount; recipe could be cut in half or thirds.



" Another oft-requested recipe from Chronicle files. This is adapted from the smallest batch Case Ol‚ makes, which calls for 45 pounds of cheese. "



Note: Amounts are approximate. The file recipe calls for 13 ounces chopped onion, 9 ounces chopped celery, 10 ounces chopped bell pepper and 1 3/4 ounces chopped jalape=F1os.
