I saw this and so had to try it. I used Simply Potatoes hash browns from the refrigerator section at the grocery. I added green onion, cheddar, salt, pepper, paprika and melted butter. I sprayed the waffle maker with non stick spray, packed in the potatoes and locked it. I should have let them cook longer, but they were crispy on the out side and creamy on the inside.

This creamy filling is a good foil for this bold sauce.
1 Poblano pepper
1 Red bell pepper
1 1/2 Cups of shredded rotisserie chicken
2 Tbls of olive oil
1 Tsp cumin- less depending on your taste
1 Clove of minced garlic- I use a rasp to grate mine
Juice and zest of 1/2 a lime
Salt
1/4 of a finely chopped onion
1/3 Cup of sour cream
3 Tbls of chopped cilantro
6 Torillas- flour or corn your preference
2 Cups grated monterey jack cheese
Green enchilada sauce- I use Fronterra
Broil your peppers turning until charred on all sides. Place peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap until cool enough to handle. Remove the skin and seeds from the peppers cut into strips and place in a large bowl. Add all of the ingredients through the onion and toss. Stir in sour cream and 2 tbls of the cilantro reserving one for garnish. You will need a baking dish that is large enough for 2 tortillas to fit side by side. Pre heat oven to 450. Spray you dish with cooking spray, pour some enchilada sauce in the bottom of the dish place 2 tortillas in the bottom side by side. Divide your filling in 4 equal parts, add 1/4 to each tortilla sprinkle on some cheese and drizzle on a little sauce and top with another tortilla. Repeat process pour the remaining sauce over the top and cover with cheese. Bake for 25 minutes. If the top torilla starts to look dry spoon some sauce over the top. Let rest 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with cilantro and a lime wedge.
This is my boyfriend’s most favorite food of ALL time. I use a few influences in one pot. Spanish and Italian.
1 lb Tomatoes diced
1/2 English Cumber peeled, seeded and diced
1/2 Yellow Bell Pepper diced
1/2 Red Onion diced
1 garlic clove minced or grated
1/4 c of Olive Oil
2 Limes juiced and zested
1 Tbls Balsamic vinegar
1 Tbls Worcestershire
1 Tsp Cumin
1 Tsp Smoked Paprika
Salt and Pepper to taste
3 Tbls Fresh Basil chopped
Place all ingredients except the salt, pepper and basil in a large bowl or pot and blend with an immersion blender to the consistency that you like. Or blend in a blender in batches. Add basil and salt and pepper to taste. Chill or serve at room temp.
So Harris Teeter sells an unbaked cheese pizza in the deli case. I took that blank slate and made it my own. A little ground sirloin, a hot Italian chicken sausage, some uncured pepperoni, olives, mushrooms and pepperoncini. Top with fresh basil when it comes out of the oven and you have a pretty good pizza pie.
Of course I added a few things, roasted red pepper and a little cooked spicy Italian chicken sausage.
I took Recipes from 2 of my 3 favorite Italian chefs and made an amazing meal! Giadi De Laurentis’s spinach and Mushroom ravioli and Michael Chiarello’s walnut and ricotta pesto. I kept thinking tomato sauce just didn’t feel right for this pasta. So, I found the perfect sauce to go with it. My tweek for these recipes was a little ricotta and nutmeg to the ravioli filling and lemon juice to the pesto. I have extra filling and extra pesto. I am going to assemble a lasagna for the freezer! FYI…my third favorite Italian chef is Nick Stellino what a character, but I love to hear the stories of his family and his recipes are good. https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/spinach-and-mushroom-ravioli-recipe2-1953189 https://www.food.com/recipe/walnut-and-ricotta-pesto-michael-chiarello-117954
The recipe is too much for 2 people I would cut the ingredients in half next time. It was soo good. As usual I deviated from the recipe. I used cooked lobster claws and a raw lobster tail. I put the tail and sausage in at the 15 minute stir mark and added the cooked claws at the steam on the stove stage.
This is a fish recipe that I tried once, I loved the sauce! I am not a fish fan but I make it once in a while for my boyfriend. I used thin chicken cutlets and browned them on the outside then put them in a baking dish and covered with the sauce add herbed new potatoes and steamed lemon green beans and you have yourself a home run! https://barefootcontessa.com/recipes/mustard-roasted-fish
I did not roast the beets. You can buy good organic roasted beets in your local produce department it is much less work.
