Kathy Ellen's Fresh Salsa

Ingredients:

** 2 cups of fresh corn (cut from the cob)

** 4 ripe plum or vine tomatoes, peeled (optional), seeded and diced

** 2/3 large red onion diced

** garlic and red pepper flakes to your taste

** 1 each: sweet peppers (green, yellow and orange) seeded and diced

** 1 tablespoon minced jalapeno peppers

** 1 tablespoon minced poblano peppers

** fresh cilantro (heafty handful)

**1 tablespoon each of squeezed lime and lemon juice extra virgin oil and balsamic oil (enough to marinate). You can add a bit more of olive & balsamic oil, salt and pepper.

__________________________________________________ ______________

** Combine corn, tomatoes, onion, all peppers and cilantro. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper and marinate for an hour or overnight.

** Drain the salsa mixture in a colander. Try to squeeze out as much liquid as possible by placing this mixture onto paper towels and tea towel, and drain for 1/2 hour.

__________________________________________________ _____________

You can mix this salsa with chicken, shrimp, pork, lobster and make a fried tortilla. I buy the large "Mission Wraps", usually Jalapeno Cheddar or Sundried Tomato and Basil and add my favorite chesses ( asiago, parmesan and fontina).

**lay the tortilla out flat. Place your ingredients: meat, cheese and salsa, or whatever on the tortilla and fold the tortilla like a taco.

**place extra virgin olive oil in a pan and place the tortilla mixture onto the pan. Fry on both sides until brown. DON'T take your eyes from the pan for a second....it fries up VERY quickly. you wouldn't believe what a difference this frying makes...

** add sour cream and snippets of scallions to the top of the tortilla and ENJOY!!

****** This mixture of salsa makes at least 4 cups of salsa....enought to use right away and freeze extra. Just make sure you've taken most of the liquids out.

Just made this brekke sandwich this morning...yummy:-6

Spicy Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Panini

INGREDIENTS:

Any kind of brekke sausage that you like. I love the hot, Italian sausages:-4

2 large eggs

1 tablespoon milk

1/8 teaspoon salt

dash freshly ground black pepper

dash Cajun or Creole seasoning

2 to 3 teaspoons butter

2 small slices Mozzarella cheese

2 medium ciabatta breads (about 3 1/2 to 4-inch squares) or other similar size bread

PREPARATION:

Slice your sausage link in half crosswise, then slice into 4 or 5 thin slices lengthwise. In a small skillet, brown the sausage on both sides, set aside.

Whisk eggs in a small bowl with the milk, salt, pepper, and seasoning.

Slice the Ciabatta bread horizontally.

In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat.

Add eggs and let firm up around the edges. With a spatula, form the egg into a rectangle, letting the liquid egg remaining flow around it. Continue cooking and shaping with the spatula until firm enough to flip. Flip and let the other side cook until the eggs are firm but still moist. Remove from heat.

Cut in half and divide egg between two bottom halves of Ciabatta bread or other bread. Top the egg with the thinly sliced sausage then place a slice of cheese on top. Finish with bread tops. Grill or cook in a panini press until sandwich is hot and cheese is melted.

Makes 2 medium sandwiches.

****If you don't have a panini maker you can put aluminum foil around a brick and then place it over the sammy on the grill.

Stuff's resolving here, Kathy. The process is painful, but I am starting to see light at the end of the tunnel. Very soon, hopefully, what's left of the former stylishly abnormal madcap, bright and breezy, creative pam type goddess will re-emerge. :-6 Ready for mischief and merriment in Klees and elsewhere. :sneaky:

Here's one for qduck.........

Chipotle Marinated Chicken and Pine Nut Quesadilla

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients:

4 ounces Tabasco Chipotle Sauce

8 ounces raw chicken meat, boneless, small dice

1 tablespoon canola oil

8 flour tortillas

12 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, grated

1/3 cup pine nuts, toasted

1/2 Roma tomato, small dice

1 cup Tomatillo Sauce (recipe follows)

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Place the pieces of chicken into the Tabasco Chipotle Sauce for 30 minutes. While the chicken is marinating, toast the pine nuts in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes. Watch them closely as they have a high oil content and will burn quickly. Once lightly browned, remove the nuts from the oven and transfer them to a cool dish.

Sauté the chicken in a non-stick skillet for 4-5 minutes in the oil. Cook the chicken until just firm, being careful not to overcook. Allow the chicken to cool and cut it into small pieces.

To Assemble the Quesadillas:

Place 4 tortillas on a non-stick cookie sheet. Spread the grated cheese over each tortilla evenly about 1/3 of an inch high. Spread equal amounts of the chicken, pine nuts, and tomato on top of the cheese and place the four remaining tortillas on top.

Place the quesadillas into the 350°F oven for 7-8 minutes until the cheese has softened and just begins to bubble out the sides.

To serve, cut each quesadilla into 8 pieces with a large knife on a wooden cutting board. Slide the cut quesadilla onto a plate and top each slice with a dollop of the Tomatillo Sauce

Tomatillo Sauce

Makes 6 servings

Ingredients:

1/2 avocado

3 tablespoons sour cream

1-4 ounce can tomatillos, crushed

Preparation:

Remove the pit from the avocado and scoop the fruit out with a soup spoon. Place the avocado, the sour cream and the tomatillos in a food processor or blender and purée until smooth.

Store in a sealed plastic container in the refrigerator. Best used the same day as prepared, but will last for up to 4 days.

HOT POTATO CHEESE SOUP



2 Tb Butter

4 Leeks, white part only, cleaned well and sliced

5 lg Russet potatoes, unpeeled, diced

1 qt Vegetable stock many Chopped ripe serranos (or cayennes but serrano flavor does especially well here)

Salt to taste

2 c Milk or soymilk

1/2 t Caraway seeds (optional but good)

2 Tb Fresh dill or 1 Tbsp. dried

Pepper to taste

1 c Grated Swiss cheese

1/4 c Grated Parmesan cheese

3 Tb Plain yogurt

Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

In a large stock pot, melt butter and saute leeks for 3 minutes. Add potatoes, stock and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.

Add the milk, caraway seeds, dill and pepper. Let simmer another 15 to 20 minutes; the soup should become thick and the potatoes should begin to fall

apart. Stir in cheeses and allow them to melt, then stir in the yogurt and heat through, but do not boil. Adjust seasoning and serve hot, topped with parsley.

Double Pepper- Infused Strawberries



Strawberries with Tex-Mex Tequila and Black Pepper

This is a shocking dessert if there ever was one, with the sharp flavors of the pepper tequila and black pepper strangely complementing the sweetness of the strawberries. Only a truly daring chilehead would serve this over chile-infused icecream.

6 cups halved strawberries

1/2 cup orange juice

1/4 cup chile-infused tequila (or soak crushed piquin chiles in tequila for a few hours and strain)

2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar

Mint sprigs for garnish

Combine the strawberries, orange juice, tequila, black pepper, and balsamic vinegar in a bowl and toss well. Cover and chill for 3 hours, stirring occasionally. Spoon the mixture into 6 small glass bowls and garnish with the mint sprigs.

The piquin chili is extremely hot...check the following scale for a milder one:

2 jalapeno or other hot peppers, diced

1 tomatoes, diced

:wah::wah: There's always erosion and lots of sand was on the street. The wind was horrible. Tried to take a pic of the surf and was nearly blown into the sea. It's bad here with high surf because I live between the Barnaget Bay and the ocean.

Pass the crackers, please, Kathy.. I've brought a tray of peach bellinis to offset the heat.

:sneaky:

It's rained here in Sydney for a whole week. Amazing. Lovely to watch in the evening, but a bit of a pain to negociate during the day. Lots of flooding round here too. Pity the coastal rain doesn't make it inland here. Most of the non flooded part of the country is still in drought - go figger.

My family is in Greece and Aruba ...right now...I'm so jealous....would love to go to Greece one day. Did you watch the movie...."40 Carats" swoon, so romantic:-4 Part of it took place in Greece.
