Dee, please I would love your red beans and rice... I know anybody can make it but your red beans and rice were my first... that has set the bar rather high...
To everyone else... keep up the great work you are all doing...

Would love to see your recipe for turkey chile! Red chile, right? Oh yeah, I see it is chili, with an 'i'. That is always red, right? I adore chile or chili, every incarnation I have found of the stuff. Yummmy and really good eats.
I am from New Mexico and we do chile two ways, red or green. Or you can get it Christmas, both red and green, half and half. I love seeing a huevos rancheros half the plate with some awesome red chile sauce and the other half a killer Hatch green chile sauce.
Another delicious NM green chile dish is calabacitas. Yummmy and full of fiber, very low calorie and huge on flavour. Also is cheap eats. Who does not have a glut of squash every year, or know someone who's garden runneth over with zucchini and the like. Which reminds me, time to plant some zucchini and yellow squashes!

I have never added the cheese as they do in this basic recipe. But this recipe is pretty basic and easy to tweek. I know my brother and sister-in-law for Christmas this year added a granny smith apple to the calabacitas and omg, it was fabulous. They said they used whatever it was they had around. Basically what you taste is veggie heaven and the Hatch Green Chile, which is the flavour of home to me.
Now I am hungry! Time to make something yummmy...
