Add 1 cube of chicken bouillon for each cup of water used. This will be the base for the soup. I like to add a little extra for additional flavor. Add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of pepper and a few dashes of Tapatio. Bring to a boil. Carefully add meatballs to boiling base. Cover and cook on medium heat for 10 minutes. Add tomato sauce and vegetables. Cook on medium to low heat, stirring occasionally, until all vegetables are soft to the touch. Lastly, ladle into a soup bowl, squeeze some lime over the top. Add a couple of dashes of Tapatio and some cilantro leaves. Warm the tortillas over an open flame on the stovetop for 5 seconds on each side. Use caution when working with an open flame. If you prefer, you can heat tortillas in the microwave for fifteen seconds. Let any leftovers cool to room temperature before pouring into a container and seal lid. Refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in microwave or on stovetop as needed. This recipe is very simple and most everyone will take pleasure in. Albondigas is a delicious meal for anytime of year, particularly those cold winter days. Many restaurants in Mexico, as well as the U.S. serve this wonder soup, although, there is nothing like making it with all fresh ingredients at home. I have had this recipe for many years and I hope you and your family enjoy it as much as my family and I
A quesadilla can be an easy and low costing college meal. Ingredients needed to make are two tortillas, corn, tomato, shredded cheese and refried beans. First, take two tortillas out of the package and butter thoroughly. Next, grill the tortillas on the George Foreman grill. This will make the tortillas crispy. After you’re done grilling put on toppings of corn, tomato and cheese onto a tortilla. Then, put the other tortilla on top of the toppings and put the quesadilla back onto the grill. Finally, take the quesadilla off the grill and put refried beans on the side. Sprinkling cheese on top of the refried beans will make a delicious dip. Have fun eating your cheap, but tasty quesadilla!
When most people hear the word “Mexican”, a person instantly thinks of food. This is because Mexicans have been known through out America as a culture to have a variety of some of the best dishes. Hispanics males take pride in working, just as the females take pride in cooking. The women don’t do it just for the heck of it, they make a form of art and also competition. Every Mexican family has a person who competes with another, to see who can make the best dish. Mexicans have different dishes from soups to rice. The one soup you will here in the Mexican generation is pozole. This is a soup that consists of pork, hominy, and spicy herbs. This recipe has been in my family for a more then a decade, and now I share it with you. In order to cook this soup and make as good as Mexicans do, you must possess a certain passion for cooking. Most Mexicans do so do you?
The last step of this recipe is waiting. The master pot should be left on low heat for about one hour and a half to two hours while stirring consistently to prevent sticking or burning to the edges of the pan. The sauce can be thinned if too thick by simply adding some more, you guessed it, chicken stock. When the sauce is done, my grandmother usually puts some salt and pours it on some cooked chicken with rice on the sides. The rice she makes (another traditional dish) is delicious and requires a recipe of its own. But after the sauce is nice and ready, pour it on your choice of poultry or even get crative. The end result is always a happy mouth and a taste of mexican heritage itself. Enjoy.

Now first things first. You need to go to the store for a few ingredients, because I’m sure you don’t just keep okra around for the sake of it. What you will need for the seasoning mix is: 1 tablespoon sweet paprika, 1 tablespoon dry mustard, 2 ½ teaspoons dried sweet basil leaves, 2 teaspoons of salt, onion powder and garlic powder each; 1 ¼ teaspoons dried oregano, 1 ½ teaspoons thyme leaves, ¾ teaspoons of black pepper and ½ teaspoons of white pepper and cayenne pepper each. That was the seasoning mix; you still need meat and veggies. That list contains: 1 pound of chicken breast’s, cubed into ½-inch pieces, 1 pound of fresh peeled medium shrimp, 2 cups of chopped green bell peppers, chopped celery and defatted seafood stock each; 3 cups of chopped onions, sliced okra, chopped collard greens, and defatted chicken stock each; 1 cup each of apple juice, 3 bay leaves, 6 cups of chopped mustard greens, and cooked long grain white rice and 6 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, browned.

Once you have everything that is needed, you can begin to prepare the dish. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Take the large mixing bowl and pour the sour cream and the can of mushroom soup into it. I use one can of Campbell's mushroom soup. You can use the off-brand mushroom soup to cut costs if you wish. The end result will be about the same. I also prefer to use fat free sour cream to make it lighter. However, any sour cream would work. You will need eight ounces of sour cream. Stir the sour cream and soup together, and they will blend into a sort of cream sauce. If it is too thick, add a few tablespoons of water to thin it. The sauce should slowly drizzle off of the spoon. You also need to prepare the beef. It is totally dependent on your preference as to how much beef you should use. I tend to use about two pounds of lean hamburger. ...

In the Spanish culture, there are a variety of core, secondary and peripheral foods that make up the diet of Spaniards. Traditionally in the Spanish culture, meals begin with a light breakfast, followed by a multiple-course lunch and a late dinner. Since the meal times have large gaps throughout the day, it is common for the Spanish culture to enjoy an afternoon snack called "tapas.” Some foods that are core in the Spanish diet are meats, starches, egg and fish. Such meats as pork, chicken and lamb are common among meat dishes throughout Spain. The majority of the Spanish borders are adjacent to water, which is where Spain acquires most of their fish. Seafood is commonly eaten during lunch and dinner. Eggs are a common component in the Spanish diet. Probably the most important component of the Spanish diet is rice, which is found in a variety of Spanish dishes. A very popular meal eaten by the Spanish people is Paella, a rice dish prepared with vegetables and various seafoods. Fruits and vegetables are a key component in most Spanish dishes.
