I’m so glad you posted that - I once found a recipe very like it, and lost it. It’s a great way to get Chili Relleno flavor, without all the work. (Though a really well-done Chili Relleno is one of the best things you can eat. I like them with cheese, not meat.)

Sounds good. I have to admit, I’ve been very happy with Trader Joe’s tomato soup. Comes in a carton, makes about four servings. When I want a no-work lunch or light dinner, it’s good. Nuke up a bowl, top with some toasted cheese - also nuked.
It’s so hard...especially when you don’t measure anything.
There’s a Trader Joe’s not too far from here, but I’ve never gone there. Somehow I got it in my head that it’s relatively expensive for what’s on offer; is it?

We have a Trader Joe’s in town. It is a little high-end, but they also have things you don’t find in other stores. You just have to watch for specials.
They put out a wonderful ‘flyer’, too. It’s fun to read. I hope they give their ad man a bonus.
Wife and I made Po-BLAM-o “burgers” this week.
Toasted buns on the grill, poblano peppers, portabello mushrooms, a slice of pepper jack and a chunk of avocado, slathered in Mexican Odobo sauce.
Excellent !
Are you both on the wrong thread or just grooving to your own beat????? Truly fascinated..........
Mmmmmmmm.......we just finished chili w/ cheddar & cornbread muffins.
That sounds really good, I’ve been looking for a good tomato soup recipe. We tried one at Macaroni Grill a year ago and it was so good. A bit on the spicy side though!
I think someone tried to bait me in here, to offend you folks.
I apologize for the intrusion.
Could youpleaseshare what ingredients & do you butter the tortillas or not? They sound so good!
I make them in the oven and turn it on convection. The tortillas get nice and crispy. They taste great with blended cheese and I also make pizzadillas that the kids love too.
That sounds great!
I’m not much of a meat eater, but a good hamburger is one of my absolute favorite things. I look for it on every menu and if it’s good, it’s all I’ll order there.

I was thinking that someone just accidentally posted to the wrong thread; or that I had somehow posted to somebody else’s ;-)

It is a lot of trouble, but turns out very well, and it freezes well. You might want to use at least some of the sugar, on the first try. I like it very tart, but others may not.

No beef of any kind in this recipe.
The fat portabello is grilled in place of “burger.”
LOL! I thought those were fixins for a burger...and it would be very good!

Something easy & delicious w/ soup or w/ a glass of wine.....take herbed goat cheese, put a hunk on a crescent roll, roll up & bake. A quickly appetizer too.
Some things are considerably less expensive than most supermarkets. Some things more, and the produce is not as fresh. I get good value on frozen fruit, nuts, wine, cheese, and the soup.
If I’m hosting a dinner and don’t want to spend too much time on appetizers or deserts, they have some good choices, at reasonable prices for ready-made.
I’ve seen a lot of stuff from Trader Joe’s brought to parties and potlucks - what I’ve tried has been good.
