3 -4 large Tomatoes, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons minced cilantro
1 tablespoon chili powder

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 Avocado, chopped
1/4 cup cilantro, pulled from stem

4.If you are not using a crock pot, saute the garlic and onion in 2 tablespoons olive oil before adding the remaining ingredients.
5.Simmer for at least an hour so that the flavors mix together.
