NOLA Munchkin's Thunder Cheese

1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded

1 cup mayo

1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

3-4 green onions, chopped

dash red pepper flakes [to taste, you may want more or omit it altogether] 

dash cayenne pepper  [to taste, you may want more or omit it altogether] 


Mix all ingredients together and chill in fridge. It is quite edible right after it is made also.


My tweaks:

I added 2 seeded and chopped jalapeno peppers and 3 slices chopped crispy bacon. 


Origins:

Our dear friends NOLA Munchkin and Scootr Bud introduced us to Thunder Cheese from Canseco's Market on Esplanade in New Orleans. over a year ago and we loved it! They do too so NOLA gradually let his taste buds decipher the recipe and started making it at home. [MUCH CHEAPER TRUST ME] He was generous to give us this recipe and agreed to let us share it here.
