Yes! While queso Chihuahua gives the bread a rich, melty texture and authentic flavor, you can substitute with other mild, meltable cheeses like mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or a mild cheddar. Just make sure to use shredded cheese so it mixes evenly into the dough.
No — you can use pre-roasted, diced green chiles from a can or jar to save time. If you prefer to roast them yourself, simply blister the skins under a broiler or over an open flame, then peel and dice. Either way, they'll add that signature mild heat and smoky flavor.
Once the bread has cooled completely, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. For longer storage, slice and freeze it, then reheat slices in the oven or toaster for a fresh-baked taste.
