Recipe By : Restaurant Hospitality magazine Nov. '97 Cook chorizo in large skillet over medium heat, stirring often and breaking meat into small pieces. Drain excess fat. Add onions, and cook until translucent. Add green chilies; cook until hot. Remove from pan.

Lightly coat a 400* F preheated griddle with non-stick cooking spray. Place 3 ounce portions of cheese in mounds on griddle.
