	* Exported from MasterCook * New Mexico Breakfast Burrito Recipe By : Serving Size : Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Volume 10-02 Feb 2007 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- Crisp bacon pieces or could be sausage or ham Scrambled eggs [or in the case of hubby, egg whites] Flour tortilla Cheese Red chile sauce Cook scrambled eggs, add cooked meat. Roll tightly in warmed tortilla. Cover with red sauce and sprinkle with cheese and place under the boiler just to melt cheese. The low fat cheese (husbands) won't melt under the broiler but gets like cardboard and doesn't taste any better so it needs to be put inside the tortilla with the eggs. Red Chile Sauce: 2 tablespoons shortening 2 tablespoons flour 1/4 cup red chile powder (mild or hot) 2 cups cold water 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt (I use a fresh clove) Oregano - small amount Cumin - small amount Cilantro - small amount Heat shortening in a medium size saucepan on medium heat. Stir in flour and cook for one minute. Add chile powder and cook for an additional minute. Gradually add water and stir, making sure that no lumps form. Add seasonings to sauce and simmer at low heat for 10 to 15 minutes. Contest Notes: You guessed it - we have been trying to get out from under all our snow here in New Mexico and the biggest problem is that we don't even own a snow shovel and the shops are out of them probably for the season. Here's a family favorite that is actually a New Mexico breakfast but we love putting this together for a fast and tasty dinner. I keep the red chile sauce at the ready in the fridge - recipe follows. ---> Wow! I have to admit that I have trouble accepting the words "snow" and "New Mexico" in the same sentence! Thanks for kicking off our recipe challenge, Kate. Also, you have just given me an idea for our next challenge. <Hallie wiggles her eyebrows mysteriously> Contributed to the FareShare Gazette Family Favourites Recipe Challenge by Kate; 19 February 2007. www.fareshare.net - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
