This recipe requires a lot of chopping.
Chop the following as fine or chunky as you want
1 green pepper
3-4 various peppers like annaheims or anything you like. I like to find what is in season and what is not too hot
1 onion
4 green onions (chop off most of the white parts and just use the middle of the onion)
1-2 cloves of garlic
1 bunch of cilantro
Juice 1-2 lemons
2 large cans of whole peeled tomatos
blend both cans and with one can also bend
4-5 tomitillos
Mix all the above together with
1 tsp of cumin
1 tsp of garlic powder
1/4 tsp of pepper
1/2 tsp of salt
The best part of this recipe is you can't go wrong. It is just a mixture of a bunch of great veggies. If you have any questions let me know and you can come over and we can make salsa together.
2 1/2 cup crushed corn flakes1/8 to 1/4 cup sugar (depending on how sweet you like it)4 TBSP crushed pecans5 TBSP melted butter Mix all ingredients together. Use 1/2 gallon of ice cream and scoop out nice sized balls. Roll into mixture and refreeze in tinfoil lined container. Serve with your choice of toppings: dulce de leche, hot fudge, whipped cream, cherries.etc.
Sometimes you can find it already made at the store. To make it at home, take 1 can of sweetened condensed milk and boil it in a pot of water for at least 3-4 hours. You will have to continually replace the water as it boils away. The top of the can should always be covered with water. Let the can cool in the pot of water for about an hour. Open up and enjoy!

Sauté in vegetable oil starting with onions then squash then peppers. Just before they’re done, season with garlic salt and cumin to taste. Serve on tortillas; can add feta cheese and black beans too.

When life has kicked you to the curb, and you are just too tired to make a delicious dish, drive to Chipotle and order its Guac and Chips.
Enjoy with family and friends, hopefully your family members are your friends too! If they don’t like it, serve them a peanut butter sandwich; peanuts are from the south, just not south of the border. Ole!

Add 2 cups of the instant rice; let rice cook for five minutes. Add entire can of salsa and black beans. Return to medium heat; cook for a few minutes until most of the moisture is out.

I used five tablespoons of chili powder and three teaspoons cumin because I wanted more spice to it.Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and salt and cook until softened, about five minutes. Stir in the chili powder, garlic, cumin, and sugar. Cook until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Stir in the tomato sauce and water. Bring to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, about five minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

1.5 pound frozen chicken breasts (about three)
1 15-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes (or diced), mashed
1 10-ounce can red enchilada sauce
1 medium onion, chopped
1 4-ounce can chopped green chili peppers
2 cloves garlic minced
2 14.5-ounce cans chicken broth
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 10-ounce package frozen corn
1 can black beans (optional)
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
7 corn tortillas (or a package of tostada shells)
Vegetable oil if using tortillas
Garnishes: Graded cheddar cheese, cilantro, lime wedges, sour cream, avocado and fresh lime juice.
Place chicken, tomatoes, enchilada sauce, onion, green chilies, and garlic in a slow cooker. Pour in chicken broth and season with cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Stir in corn, beans, and cilantro. Cover and cook on low setting for six to eight hours or on high setting for three to four hours. Shred chicken about 20 minutes before serving. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly brush both sides of tortillas with oil. Cut tortillas into strips, then spread on a baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven until crisp, about 10 to 15 minutes. As an alternate to baking your own tortilla strips, you can use a package of tostada shells. To serve, sprinkle tortilla chips over soup and garnish with additional cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, graded cheddar, avocados, and a splash of fresh lime juice.
