Zesty Salsa for Canning

Zesty Salsa for Canning by Krista Goben

Makes about 6 (16 oz) pints or 12 (8 oz) half pints (I double this recipe to make 7 quarts, it usually makes a little more so I have about 5 pint jars ready in case!) **note: When I make quarts, I boil for 30 minutes.

Joyce's Fresh Jalapeno Salsa

Joyce's Fresh Jalapeno Salsa by Kathleen Scott

Joyce is the angel who helps care for my father. The last time I visited with my parents, Joyce taught us how to make fresh jalapeno salsa. Joyce's salsa puts the bottled stuff to shame and this "from-scratch" salsa is so easy we'll never buy salsa again. The only caveat is "know what you like"--for just a little heat, use just a…

Mexican Beans

Mexican Beans by Spicie Foodie

Frijoles,Beans are an essential part of Mexican food, I remember when I was growing up my Mom always had a pot on the stove or ready made in the refrigerator for our weekly meals. If you want to make good Mexican food you should learn how to make simple beans to work with that you can later add other ingredients or spices to. Although…

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.)

Kabot's Famous Tortilla Soup by Kabot S

This is without a doubt the best tortilla soup that you will ever taste. Wars have been fought over this recipe. Phone calls to friends of ex-lovers have been made not to talk to the ex-lover, but to get this recipe. Now I have decided to share this recipe with you. This soup is very hearty and we often eat it as the main course.

Homemade Salsa to be canned, or served fresh

Homemade Salsa to be canned, or served fresh by Salad Foodie

A perfect solution to summer's finale of Roma tomatoes is this canning salsa recipe. Although paste (Roma) tomatoes are the preferred variety, slicing tomatoes will work but if they are, I recommend these changes: seed them and if needed, add a few additional minutes cooking and stirring time to reduce the mixture and achieve…

Cumin Chicken Soup

Cumin Chicken Soup by Farrell May Podgorsek

I created this warming soup from the leftovers of the wonderful Cumin Roasted Chicken. The aromas of cumin, oregano and chicken promise a flavorful dinner. Use one or more jalapeno pepper, depending upon your preference and the heat of the peppers. I finished the soup with diced avocado and homemade green salsa and served it over a…

Tostadas with Shredded Pork and Spices

Tostadas with Shredded Pork and Spices by Robyn Savoie

Crisp fried tortillas topped with re-fried beans and spiced shredded pork make a delectable treat and are often sold from stalls in Mexican City streets. I like to switch between black and pinto re-fried beans for variety. I also found you can easily make this using a crock-pot/slow cooker; see tip below.

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…
