In Reno the quality of the Mexican food is directly inverse to the price.

Green chili sauce is not really a "Tex-Mex" dish, you will rarely see it on a menu. I fell in love with green chili sauce in Colorado. I will tell you though, you drive through any small town in Texas, and there will be at least one tex-mex place, maybe 2, and they are guaranteed to be good. Any time I'm traveling through Texas, its what I look for.
I've noticed a thing here where the old Italian bakeries seem to be taken over by Colombians. Which means we KINDA get Mexican proxy food which ain't bad. But still not real Mexican. Shame really..

Its not that much. You take 1 stem, it has like 4 leaves on it. See below. That is one bushel. I took all the stems off, and put half away in zip lock bag. In the recipe above I actually used half a bushel, and I thought that was too much, reason why I posted 1/4. I'm still trying to prefect my recipe, my son loved it, but I'm still looking for that certain flavor I have not found yet.
Her it is chopped up...

Happy Cinco de Mayo! My son made dinner last night, he made all of it, all from scratch, he is one hell of a cook a tell ya...
He made these enchiladas for just me and him, wife and daughter had tacos...
For the meat, he cooked a chuck roast in the crock pot all day, Mexican BBQ style he called it...Then shredded it.
Mexican Bean soup...delish....
Mexican rice, again all from scratch, so good.
My dish!!

My son bought that with his own hard earned money. He also bought the crock pot he cooked that roast in as well. I have not used any of those appliances. The boy loves to cook I tell ya, he cooked this the nigh before..Also, love the camouflaged mixmaster on the shelf in the backWe've got the same mixer in the same color.
He is so meticulous with the garnish and all...
He got mad at me for taking the pic below because it was not cooked perfectly (over cooked slightly). As I'm taking the pic "no no no!" he says, gezz calm down..lol
I missed that.Also, love the camouflaged mixmaster on the shelf in the back

Salmon Taco Thursday
I love New Mexican food. I went to most of high school and college there and miss good red chile the most. I was down in Santa Fe a couple of weeks ago (sadly, for a friend's mother's funeral) and ate as much New Mexican food as I could.

Isn’t it chile roasting season?
I remember seeing them in parking lots in Santa Fe many years ago, didn’t know a thing about it. Some people I was staying later with grilled some up, peeled and spread like butter on toast. Delicious.
It is! I can get fresh roasted green chile here at the local farmers market but the red chile is more elusive.
