Steak Salad
Leftover steak salad with avocado/cucumber dressing, tomato, jicama and a few crushed seasoned onion crisps and a splash of lime juice
Spicy Garlic Chicken Soup
Spicy Garlic Chicken Soup - cubed up the garlic-lime chicken, added chick-peas, zuchini, green beans, jicama, corn, oregano, cumin and my SW blend and a tad of tomato paste and Mexican Crema to the spicy broth from this morning. Delish!
Cajun Fries
2 russet potatoes cut into fries, soak in cold water in the fridge for an hour to remove some starch. Drain. Fry @325 until half cooked, remove from oil, drain completely, turn oil up to 360 and fry until done. Releasing the starch and the partial fry keep them nice and crispy. Once done, season immediately to your taste. I make my own Cajun blend cuz I use it quite a bit.
Fiesta Part Two
chicken and beef adobo, mango habanero tortilla soup, habanero gravy and a spicy mix for burritos

Habenero mango chicken tortilla soup. Chicken and beef cubes in spicy adobo sauce, chicken and steak fajita meat, cilantro lime rice, pinto beans, fajita veggies, and not pictured I also made 3 salsas and jalapeño/ghost pepper bean & cheese spread and habenero/serrano pepper gravy and fresh fixings.

Freezer Tip -
Another freezer tip. This time I am not using the vacuum sealer. My sauce has been cooled. I put a piece of plastic wrap over the top of it before putting the lid on the container this will help prevent any freezer burn when you are not vacuum sealing.
Spaghetti Sauce
peppers, mushrooms, onion, garlic, fresh basil and parsley, sugar, lemon juice oregano, thyme, Italian sausage, ground beef, tomato sauce, tomato paste
