Chopped Cheese Tacos
"This past winter, the chopped cheese sandwich enjoyed its moment in the sun. Think of it as a Philly Cheese Steak with New York swagger. While every maker puts their own spin on it, it’s typically made with ground beef, bell peppers and onion, cooked and chopped up together on a griddle. It’s covered with cheese, topped with shredded lettuce and stuffed inside a toasted hoagie roll. We thought it would make a delicious cheeseburger-esque taco filling. We added a little bit of chipotles in adobo but they can vary greatly in spiciness. We suggest starting with just one pepper and adding more if you want more heat...."
