Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 medium white onion, chopped
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, halved and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh epazote leaves (or oregano)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground pepper, to taste
2 cups shredded monterey jack cheese
crisp corn tortilla chips
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°.
2. In a medium skillet, heat the oil over medium heat, and cook the onion until softened, 3-4 minutes.
3. Add in the mushrooms, epazote, salt, and pepper; cook, stirring, until all the moisture has evaporated, 3-4 minutes.
4. Grease a shallow ovenproof earthenware plate or gratin dish, then transfer the mushrooms to the plate.
5. Spread the cheese on top and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 6-8 minutes.
6. Serve at once with the chips.
