ok. its friday, i had a crazy busy day yesterday, after the husband and i had a lovely relaxed dinner at pei wei...mmm. it was good...so i was thinking of giving you an asain inspired meal for this lovely dwitger....even though it is friday, and not thursday. i think i will make up a rule that if i forget or dont have time for thursday dwitger, i have the right to do a "make up " session on friday and get no grief for it. and if i do get any lip from you people, there will be NO SOUP FOR YOU!
so here it is...not so much asain inspired... unless your an asain living deep in the heart of mexico. i like to call it..."salsa". no, let me use my creative juices and dig deeper....i will call it, "la salsa", no, "salsa al la E and T". yes! that is what i shall call it! so here it is,
"salsa al la E and T"
ingredients:
4 roma tomatoes (depending on the size, you may want more)
half an onion
about a quarter of a green pepper
1 clove of garlic
1/4 of a japepeno (you can add more or less, dpending on how hot you want)
1/2 can of "Rotelle" (this is a key ingredient, that adds alot of flavor)
a little lime juice
salt and pepper to taste.
just add all of these ingredients together, and either put in a food processor, blender ect. my suggestion is that you eat this salsa with "Tia Rosa" tortilla chips, you can get these at walmart and they are so thin and delicious, just like at a restaurant.
now, this may seem like a boring recipe, so simple, you may say, so childish, but i challenge you to think outside the box- we have come up with lots of recipes that we use this salsa in! i will give you one today, so that you can transform this simple side dish into a main dish!
i shall call it...grilled chicken with cheese melted on it, topped with fresh salsa...no, southwest chicks n' salsa, no...chix n' mix. yes! thats it! "chix n' mix", and no, its not the same as chex mix, very different.
"chix n' mix"
ingreients:
your fresh homemade slasa
chicken boobs, or breasts, whatever youre more comfortable with.
a few slices of cheese (we like cheddar or pepper jack)
now, grill your chicken with any mexican type seasoning you like, then lay a slice of cheese on it until it melts (you may need to pop it in the microwave) and then top with a big dollup of fresh salsa. thats it. it is so simple and yet so delicioso!!

Sounds yummy as usual. I bet your salsa would be good with melted Velveeta--instant Queso!
youre so diverse... not diverse like an old old wooden ship from the civil war era... but todays dwitgr was like a trip around the world... first we were in asia, thinking we may (or may not) be getting an asian soup... then its on to Mexico for some salsa... then just when we thought it was over, we went north to Texas for good old chicken boobs w/ chesse and salsa, which I think could be called Pollo Mamacita, ( you know, "HOT MAMA CHICKEN" cause of the boobs and salsa and all...it just feels appropriate), but you call it what you will... I will write it down as Pollo Mamacita.
lis, i take your words to heart and to honor you, i will call this dish "hot mamma chicken" or pollo mamacita for all of our spanish speaking friends. i hope you all like the boobs.
