Tex-Mex Meatball Soup

Tex-Mex Meatball Soup by Salad Foodie

A hearty and colorful soup which can be cooked in about 30 minutes. Choose your meat type - beef, sausage, poultry, or a blend if preferred. Using crushed tortilla chips in meatball mixture is a nice way to bump up the corn flavor as well as use up the chip crumbles too small to serve.

Chiapas Pot Roasted Pork - Cochito Chiapaneco

Chiapas Pot Roasted Pork - Cochito Chiapaneco by John Spottiswood

I adapted this delicious, crispy-edged meat recipe from Rick Bayless's Mexican Kitchen. Nancy and I used to eat at his restaurant, the Frontera Grill, when we lived in Chicago. I served this over black beans and rice along with my spicy Ropa Vieja recipe and it was a huge hit. This would be a great alternative to carnitas for a…

Chicken and Cannellini Bean Soup

Chicken and Cannellini Bean Soup by Salad Foodie

We've been trying out several soups, chilies and stew variations, and this one grabbed the spotlight. The chicken and beans give this soup the comfort food satisfaction we crave in cooler fall weather. If you reduced the broth this would become white chili, but we opt instead for it as a soup. Note that the beans are undrained on…

Mexican Pozole II (Posole)

Mexican Pozole II (Posole) by Salad Foodie

This is the second installment on my mission to try different methods of making pozole. It has similar ingredients as the first one I posted (see “Useful Links” below), is less spicy and requires a longer cook time. Here are some things I liked about this one: (1) ease of preparation - just dump everything in the pot (2) a generous…

Mexican Pozole I (Posole)

Mexican Pozole I (Posole) by Salad Foodie

A hominy stew with pork or chicken, this soup can usually be found where Mexican food is popular. Has a nice “heat” to it, and as with most stews, flavors enhance next day. This recipe is based on one from the Las Palmas website and requires about 1 hour of cooking. A second version of posole is posted (see "Useful Links" below.)

Tamale King's Borracho Beans!! YUM

Tamale King's Borracho Beans!! YUM by Laurette Champagne-koerber

I'm pretty sure any type of beans will work for this recipe, but I always use pinto beans! open the bag and dump out the beans on the cookie sheet to get out any pebbles and yukky looking stuff. then soak the beans in water over night in crockpot or bowl. add more water to the beans in the morning if all soaked up so its about two…

Mexican Chicken Soup

Mexican Chicken Soup by Mellie Duffy

This is a super easy, healthy, & inexpensive soup to make. It can be made spicier by using medium or hot salsa instead of mild salsa; but be sure to get thick & chunky salsa. For the 2 cups of cooked chicken breast, I cut up the breasts (about 2 large size) while they are…

Slow cooker pork stew - chile verde

Slow cooker pork stew - chile verde by Nancy Miyasaki

This is an easy and tasty version of chile verde that I adapted from a slow cooker cookbook. This keeps very well for 3-4 days, and honestly tastes as good if not better reheated. You can also serve it inside tortillas as a taco or burrito for a second meal. Enjoy!

Mexican Chicken Corn Chowder

Mexican Chicken Corn Chowder by Salad Foodie

We never wait for fall for this favorite of all chowders, but enjoy it year round. A good way to use up leftover roast chicken, and the ingredients go together quickly for a fast weeknight dinner. Can be lightened by subbing fat-free half and half, or a 12 ounce can evaporated milk for the cream.

mexican chicken pozole verde

mexican chicken pozole verde by karenrecipe

There are many variations on pozole, a traditional hominy-based Mexican stew closely associated with the Pacific-coast state of Guerrero. Anya von Bremzen's version, a green pozole, derives much of its flavor from tangy ingredients like tomatillos, cilantro, and green chiles.

Mexican Chicken Stew

Mexican Chicken Stew by John Spottiswood

I adapted this from a popular food network recipe and served it at a ski trip up in Tahoe. Everyone loved it. We served it as leftovers alongside the another meal the next night, and almost everyone had a second bowl and said it tasted as good if not better! This is pretty similar to posole, but perhaps a bit less soupy than most.…

A Different Pork Pozole

A Different Pork Pozole by Bob Vincent

This is a different take on Pozole that I concocted over the weeked. It is heavy on pork/chorizo with less Hominy than most recipes. I smoked the pork/chorizo with Mesquite wood for added flavor but browned in oil would be fine if you don't have a smoker. I also added celery, carrots and a couple of red potatoes. I used canned…
