Ingredients

1/2 cup red onion finely chopped
2-3 green chilies finely chopped
1/2 cup tomatoes finely chopped
2 tbsp whole milk
1/2 cup green bell pepper finely chopped
1 1/2 cups mexican blend cheddar cheese
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/3 tsp salt adjust to taste
3 slices sourdough bread I love Whole Foods Fresh Bakery

Instructions

Combine all the ingredients, except the bread, into a large mixing bowl.
Start mashing with a fork. This will take about 5 minutes.
Eventually the cheese mixture will form into a paste.
Take a slice of sourdough bread.
Spread chili cheese mixture all over a slice of bread.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place bread slices into the toaster oven on a baking tray. Bake for 5-6 minutes until the toast is toasty and the cheese melts. Once done, you may use the toast setting for a toastier toast. Enjoy veggie toastie with ketchup or sweet & spicy chili sauce.

Notes

For Vegan: Use non-dairy milk and vegan cheese. A creamier cheese will work well.

For Gluten-free: Use gluten-free bread.

For Bread: You can use white sourdough bread, white sandwich bread, whole-wheat bread, Ezekiel sprouted whole-wheat bread, Multigrain bread, Italian loaf, or French bread.

For Cheese: I used Mexican Cheese Blend, however Medium Cheddar, Pepper Jack Cheese, or Colby Cheese would all work well. Additionally, the Indian Amul Cheese would be great too.

For Thai Green Chilies: If you can't find Indian/Thai Green Chiilies, you may use Serrano chilies. Alternatively, you may also use jalapenos, however it won't be as spicy.
