Super Easy Enchilada Sauce Chile Colorado Burrito with homemade Easy Enchilada Sauce So, the Chile Colorado Burrito recipe remains my top post, with over 2,000,000 page views. One of the main themes in the many comments I've received is about the fact that I use canned enchilada sauce. That's what I use, so that's what I posted--detractors have always been welcome to make their own sauce. I only write recipes as I do them. I have considered making a homemade enchilada sauce before, but I honestly just never felt like it. Well, my hand has been forced, as I am starting to think about and prep recipes for this year's food competition at the Iowa State Fair. The Tone's spice company has a huge competition, and one of them is titled "Favorite Tones Everyday Family Recipe," and first prize is $2,000. So, obviously, now is the time to make a homemade sauce using Tone's spices. I had to use my favorite (non-Tone's) chile powder, though, because, well, it's my favorite, and nothing can compare. So far the sauce is really delicious, and I have some stew meat cooking in my practice batch right now. (Pics to follow.) It really was extrememly easy to make, sooo...good news all you critics! I plan to make my own enchilada sauce from now on for my Chile Colorado Burritos. I'm still going to leave the recipe as-is in my blog post, though, since most people who like the recipe enjoy it for the ease. They throw it in the crock pot, go to work, and they have a fabulous hot meal at the end of the day. I'm not going to mess with that. Easy Enchilada Sauce --Adapted from Allrecipes.com Ingredients: · 1/2 cup vegetable oil · 1/4 cup all purpose flour (I used Better Batter Gluten Free AP Flour) · 1/2 cup New Mexico red chile powder (I like Bueno Special Reserve) · 1 teaspoon ground cumin · 1 teaspoon garlic powder · 1 teaspoon onion salt · 1 can (15 oz.) tomato sauce · 3 cups water · 3 teaspoons beef base (or 3 beef bullion cubes) Instructions: In a large heavy bottomed pot or in a Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the flour and chile powder. Stir, and cook for 2-3 minutes over medium heat. Stir in the cumin, garlic powder, and onion salt. Then stir in the tomato sauce and water. Add the beef base and stir to incorporate. Allow the sauce to simmer for about 5-10 minutes. Now the sauce is ready for you to use in any recipe calling for enchilada sauce. Makes about 5 cups of sauce. Recipe can be halved.
This week, we sampled Southeast Asian cuisine during our special themed dinner to Raya and the Last Dragon!
Can I tell you how much I really enjoyed this themed dinner? First- everyone enjoyed the movie. Jack Black always brings the humor and the charm (the girls also really enjoy him in the remake Jumangi movies). Second- the themed dinner was very easy to make (as you will see below). And third - the girls dressed up as rock and rollers (Kyrie had recently died purple hair, so it was perfect timing). As Dewey Finn says in the movie "OK who has food in here? You're not gonna get in trouble, I am jus

We made a themed dinner for Pinocchio! It was fun to introduce Olivia to such a classic movie. She was a little nervous during the Monstro part but I think she liked it! For dinner we had Stromboli's Stromboli, Cleo Crackers, Marionette String Cheese, Jiminy Cricket's Milkshake, and Blue Fairy Wands. Stromboli's Stromboli Ingredients: Frozen Bread Dough (I used Rhodes) Half a package (4oz) of Italian Sausage Pepperoni Mozzarella Cheese 1/8 cup of Parmesan Cheese 1 egg 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning 3 Tablespoons of butter Directions: 1. Take the bread dough out of the freezer and place on a cookie sheet for about four hours until dough starts to thaw and rise. 2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 3. Brown the Italian sausage in a pan for 3-5 minutes on medium high heat. 4. Melt butter in the microwave. 5. Once the butter is melted, add the egg, parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning and mix together. 6. Stretch bread dough out to cover the entire cookie sheet. 7. Using a brush, brush the butter mixture on the stretched out bread dough. 8. Put desired amount of Italian sausage, mozzarella, and pepperoni on the bread dough. 9. Roll up the dough and brushing with butter as you go. 10. Cook in the oven for 15 minutes and turn. 11. Cook for 3 more minutes or until golden brown on top. 12. Cut into slices and serve. Cleo Crackers Marionette String Cheese Jiminy Cricket's Milkshake I got this recipe from this cookbook. Ingredients: 1/2 cup of heavy cream 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract 1/2 tablespoon of powdered sugar 6 scoops of mint chocolate chip ice cream 1/4 cup of milk 6 mint oreos Directions: 1. Leave the ice cream out for 10 minutes to soften. 2. Add heavy cream to an electric mixer with whisk attachment and whip until it begins to thicken. 3. Add vanilla extract and sugar to the bowl. Whisk until you get stiff peaks. 4. Blend ice cream, milk, and four cookies in a blender until combined. 5. Pour ice cream mixture into two glasses and top with heavy cream mixture. 6. Crumble the last two cookies on top of the glass and serve with straws. Blue Fairy Wands I found this recipe here. Ingredients: 2 bags of popped popcorn 3 Tablespoons of butter 1 bag of mini marshmallows 1/4 cup of flour Star-shaped cookie cutters Parchment paper Cake pop sticks Blue Sprinkles Directions: 1. Prepare popcorn as directed on packaging. 2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly dust with flour. 3. Microwave butter on high until melted, 10 seconds at a time. 4. Add marshmallows 5. Microwave on high until the marshmallows are puffy, about 1 minute. 6. Stir marshmallows until butter and marshmallows are completely combined. 7. Pour melted marshmallows over popcorn and mix until popcorn is coated. 8. Put the popcorn mixture on the baking sheet and use your hands/spatula to press the popcorn mixture as flat as possible. 9. Put desired amount of sprinkles over the popcorn. 10. Use star-shaped cookie cutters to create stars. 11. Insert cake pop sticks We had a pretty easy, fun dinner! It was fun to watch Olivia try some new food.
