Chile Colorado, Mexican rice, iceberg lettuce, red onions, avocado 💚
AKA 'Chile Sin Carne' 😊
Chile Colorado is one of my favorite Mexican dishes. Years ago, it used to be my go-to birthday meal, but the cubed steak and sauce was so heavy I felt uncomfortably stuffed for hours after eating it. That's not the case when made this way! 😋
I love how simple it is and the flavors are just incredible. I used New Mexico chiles in this and #soycurls as well. I think this would be just as good with tvp or soya chunks. I'm still working out my preferred Mexican rice, but this was quite good—onion, garlic, plant-based low-salt chicken-style bouillon powder, tomato paste, oregano, achiote, salt to taste, I think that's it or mostly it.

So my kid volunteered to clean out the fridge and organize it and found my missing avocado, which ended up being the best avocado ever. I can't believe how bright it looks! It didn't have a tiny pit, I just sliced off about ¼ of it and that's what it looked like 😆
This was so good, bright flavors, and not too spicy. It's got that stick-to-your-ribs quality—satisfying & delicious!
