Kraftfoods.com
I just wanted to share this website with any moms who don't already know about it! It awesome for coupons, but it is also full of great super easy recipes! My favorite part of the site is called "1 Bag, 5 Dinners", they have put together a weeks worth of dinners (Mon-Fri) and a shopping list for each week. the best part is, the way they put the recipes together really allows you to use everything you buy without wasted food. Its been hard for me to shop on a budget, find recipes that my family actually likes and be able to cook them without feeling completely inadequate, so this was perfect for me! I hope it helps you too!
Cinco de Mayo Winning Recipe!
Espaghetti Verde (Green Spaghetti)
2 large poblano chilies
1 garlic clove, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons salt
1/2 pound spaghetti or other dried pasta
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup Mexican crema or heavy cream
4 ounces white cheddar or manchego cheese, shredded (about 1 cup)
DIRECTIONS
Griddle-roast chilies until black all over, peel and seed.
Puree in a blender or food processor with the garlic.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 5 teaspoons of the salt.
Add the spaghetti and cook according to the package directions; it should not be al dente.
While the spaghetti cooks, heat the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
When it foams, add the chili mixture.
Cook, partly covered, for 10-12 minutes.
Stir in the crema or cream and the remaining 1 teaspoon salt.
Drain the spaghetti when almost done to your taste.
Return to the pot, pour the sauce over it and toss to combine well.
Scatter the cheese over the spaghetti and serve at once.
I put slices of mozzarela and put in oven til cheese melts and then serve.
So Yummy!! Thank you Rocio!!
