Still on the fence? Red or green? Red or green chile that is. If I was forced to choose and only then would I have to choose green chile, but just by a teeny, tiny, only measured by Nasa margin! Lol! There are some recipes like Mom’s red chile pork tamales that green chile could not even touch. But then there’s my favorite pork green chile or the shredded beef and potato in green chile. Bring on the homemade flour tortillas! I share with you today a collection of recipes featuring green chile as the main ingredient, the star, if you will. Buen Provecho!

 

I was so excited to walk into my favorite market and the first thing I see! Hatch Green Chile Peppers! Picked up 5 pounds, should have picked up 10! LOL!

To see full recipes just click onto the picture of choice and it will take you to that page.

    Chile roasters are just showing up in our area, now. I always get 2 bushel right away and freeze them. Towards the end of the roasting season, I get one more for “back up”. I always tell my roaster that they should make a green chile car air freshener. My car smells soooo good for weeks. It’s my favorite smell ever ♥
    Love all recipes! Thanks for sharing!
