2 Great Recipes!

Caramel Apple Cookies

This recipe is a great alternative to traditional chocolate chip cookies, if you are ever not in the mood for those! They were very good. A word of advice... eat while warm. If you have leftover cookies, microwave them for about 15 seconds before you eat them again... or the caramel pieces will almost break your teeth! :)

Here is the link to the recipe. http://blog.craftzine.com/archive/2009/09/caramel_apple_cookies.html





Tinga

This is Silvia's recipe and it is so good if you want to be brave and try something new. It's one of our favorite Mexican dishes and we introduced it to mom and dave and they like it a lot too!

1. Boil 1-2 lbs of chicken breast (add salt and chicken boullion to the water if desired)
2. Shred chicken. Blend 6 fresh tomatoes to liquid or use 2+ cans of tomato sauce.
3. In skillet, add oil and chicken, 4-5 thinly sliced onions, and blended fresh tomatoes. (There should be about equal amounts of chicken and onion.)
4. Add about 3 chipotle peppers (buy canned chipotle peppers from the mexican aisle).
Serve with rice and eat on a corn tostada!!! Optional- add sour cream and lime! Call me if you want to try it and have questions!

SOOOOOO YUMMY! I forgot to take a picture until I had already started eating... sorry!
