Ingredients
- Handful of tortilla chips
- 4 eggs beaten
- 2 slices white bread
- 1 sliced jalapeno
- 1 12 oz bottle Corona
- 8 oz shredded cheddar
- 8 oz cream cheese
Instructions
- Start by making the beer cheese sauce.
- In a saucepan bring to simmer the Corona.
- Add the cheddar and cream cheese and stir until combined. Remove from heat.
- In a bowl, crush the tortilla chips. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs.
- Dip the bread in the egg wash, then the chips. Grease a pan and place the bread in the pan.
- When one side of the bread starts to brown, flip to the other side.
- Spread the cheese sauce and jalapeno slices over the bread.
- When the other side of the bread starts to brown, take it out of the pan and 'slap that bad boy together'.
- NOTE: realistically, the egg wash is enough to coat up to 8 slices of bread. The cheese sauce will be enough for more than eight sandwiches. Consider using more than one jalapeno if you decide to use more than the 2 slices of bread specified. Consider using butter to grease your pan.
