I typically use cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack, but any of your favorite cheeses that melt well will work. Colby, Colby-Jack, Pepper Jack, or a mixture of cheeses are all delicious options. Any brand of black beans will work for this recipe. If you don’t like black beans, you can use pinto beans instead. Diced green chiles are not spicy but add a great bold flavor to dishes. You can find these on the international food aisle in the grocery store. Creamed corn is sweet corn that is combined with a milk or cream base, giving it a similar consistency to a thick soup.

The 2 cups of cheese is just a guideline, feel free to add as much as you would like to get a super cheesy dish.
