| Spicy Chorizo Mac N Cheese |
Went to the grocery and they had chorizo on sale so I bought a few pounds and yesterday we had a chorizo fiesta. Will wanted a chorizo con queso dip, so I googled a few recipes and these are the ones I tried. This
recipe from food.com was very easy, but Will didn't like it. He's not fond of cream cheese, so that would explain it. The other one I found on
food network. Will liked this one much more and that is the one he proceeded to eat in its entirety. I also made a spicy macaroni and cheese also from the
food network. Yummy!! This is one of he best mac and cheese dishes I've had in a long time.
Since Will didn't like the recipe from food.com I took the dip and added an additional pound of cooked chorizo (casing removed), a few TBS of my own mexican spice blend and a blended a can (to eliminate the chunks) of Rotel tomatoes to it and I simmered it for about 20 minutes. I served it over a pasta with cilantro. This was a very good use of the dip that wasn't a huge hit and it really tasted good.
All of these dishes were easy to make and not too time consuming. Give them a try and good eats!!
