This recipe is a collaboration with Latina Bloggers Connect and Cacique?, however, all opinions are my own and have not been modified by others.

In my world, any day is good to eat stuffed potatoes with cheese, but now that they are all those soccer games coming, I’m loving?the idea to do a lot and serve them with a salsa bar. Affordable food and everyone loves it.
If you live in the USA and do not know about Latin cheese, I recommend Cacique? brand: excellent quality, flavor and worth buying the whole range and go on?trying new recipes, some cheeses are very different from each other and they had helped me explore new recipes. For this recipe, I used Cacique? Quesadilla?Cheese, which melts perfectly and tastes delicious. Also perfect for cheese empanadas.
