Little known Velveeta fact:

it was first marketed as a health food, and was the first food endorsed by the American Medical Association in the 1920’s..

My recipe: Large block of Velveeta, one can of Rotel, pound of cooked ground beef, can of black olives, sliced. Microwave/ melt Velveeta, mix in other ingredients, keep warm in a crock pot.

I bring this to parties and pot lucks and always get rave reviews.

When I was growing up, pinto beans and cornbread was a staple. I still love it today, but make do with Ranch Style Beans with sliced jalapenos.

And flavor with a ham bone after almost all the ham was gone.
Sunday dinner. Ham and eggs. Sandwiches.
Finally, pinto beans—the musical fruit.

I just made Beef Lombardi casserole today. Has three cans of Rotel, drained. I save the Rotel juice and use it in other things (like taco meat). I don’t drink alcohol now but I imagine it rocking in a Bloody Mary.

I grow jalapenos every year. Have seed for Jolero Yellow Jalapenos. My favorite.

Most years I grow green chili’s, normally buy Hatch Green Chili’s in fall. Local grocery store carries them. I roast them on BBQ grill and peal and freeze them. Wonderful seasoning.

My father decided he was going to make some jalapeno chow chow, or whatever it’s called. So he cut up, then ground up, a whole bunch of jalapenos. He wore no gloves. His hands were swollen for days.

The heat in jalapenos is dependent on whether they get enough moisture to grow right. (slso the type of soil) Too Dry makes them much hotter.

Variety makes a big difference too.

Men learn to be careful what they do with their hands after preparing Jalapenos. It takes some serious washing to get the capsaicin off. When you need to put out the jalapeno fire out on your tongue, granualted sugar really helps.

“jalapeno chow chow”?

Do you mean pico de gallo?
