Try cheddar instad of Monterey Jack in this recipe.

Replace the canned corn with fresh cut corn.

If you've never tried it, use fresh oregano, chopped finely, in place of the dried herb.

Minced garlic in jars (available in the produce or fresh foods aisle) saves prep time and eliminates that garlic smell throughout the house when chopping raw garlic.

Save calories by using low-fat sour cream in place of whole sour cream. Same goes for the milk. Replace it with low-fat milk to save fat and calories.
