Puerco Con Chile Verde

Puerco Con Chile Verde – Pork Green Chili Stew with Tomatillos

I’m a bit at a loss as to how to describe Puerco Con Chile Verde! Tender chunks of braised pork in a slightly spicy, slightly smoky green tomatillo sauce is descriptive but doesn’t quite give justice. Guisado de Puerco con Tomatillos or Carne de Puerco en Salsa Verde rolls off the tongue with a bit more flair.

Green Chili Breakfast Burritos

Green Chili Breakfast Burritos

Green Chili Breakfast Burritos. I’m wild crazy about them and so is anybody I’ve made them for, including the whole family. It’s a burden, I tell you, but a welcome one. When anyone comes to visit overnight I have an excuse to make these and stock up the freezer. I love to share these burritos, so now I’m sharing them here – I hope you’ll love them as much as we do.

Substitute for Chili Packet

Substitute for Chili Packet

I absolutely love this Substitute for Chili Packet Recipe. That’s because the spices and herbs are based on my favorite Chili recipe. I can’t claim that it might taste exactly like any of the commercial packets you might buy, but I can claim this will make a perfectly delish pot of chili…great flavor, not too spicy and family-friendly.

Old Fashioned American Chili

Old Fashioned American Chili

There was a time when the most popular Chili was this old-fashioned American Chili, different than today’s trendy versions. There was a time when Chili was made with simple ingredients and was served as a family meal, not a culinary adventure. A time when Chili was saucy enough to add a few crackers – and saucy enough that a spoon was used for eating, not standing up in your Chili. I miss that Chili!
