I had a few people ask for recipes from our March meeting so I thought this would be a good place to share them. Let me know if you have any questions.
Pork
4 lbs pork roast
5 cans tomato sauce (8oz)
3 tsp pressed garlic cloves
1 1/2 - 3 cups brown sugar
4 tsp cumin
4 cups Dr. Pepper
2-4 tbs molasses
1/2 tsp salt
pepper to taste
Mix the entire aboge ingredients, place ina crock-pot, and let simmer until meat is tender and pulls away with fork.
This will work overnight or about 8 hrs on low. This also makes a TON of sauce so you can mix the sauce and either double the meat or freeze half of the sauce for next time.
Lime Rice
2 Tbs butter
1 1/4 cup rice
2 1/4 cup chicken broth
3/4 tsp salt
pepper
juice and zest of 1 large or 2 small limes
2 Tbsp chopped cilantro (I added more lime and cilantro)
1/4 tsp cumin
In a skillet, melt butter with rice. Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and cook for 20 minutes.
I ended up tripling this for our quilt group and the ratios worked well.
Creamy Cilantro Dressing
16oz bottle of mild La Victoria tomatillo salsa (or any other mild green salsa)
1 package dry buttermilk ranch dressing
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayo
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup fresh cilantro
2 cloves garlic
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbs lime juice
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4-1/2 cup sugar
Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Refrigerate
Serve with Black beans, cheese, tomatos, cliantro, sour cream, etc. I also like the uncooked toritllas from Costco (in the refrigerated section).
Good Luck!
We love fabric, color, design and especially anything to do with quilting. We get together as friends once a month to share, teach, chat and motivate. We're always looking for ways to share the warmth and love from our handmade quilts with our loved ones and those in need.
