Chile Con Limon


This is not a post about food, but rather one of my most favorite spice mixes.

I got turned onto it years ago by a Hispanic friend, she put it on some melon and I nearly lost my mind!

It is a combination of chili spices, salt, lemon and lime, and something you must have in your pantry!

It is sooo yummy on everything from eggs to cantaloupe, including corn on the cob, absolutely amazing.

You can find it at any local Tienda or order it online here

I was down in Tucson a few years ago and they had the most interesting chili spice mix sprinkled on top of Mexican Snow Cones...this sounds really close to being what it could have been. If so, I agree, it's WONderful.

I think I saw this in my local Mexican grocery store! This would be soooo good on fresh, raw guava slices, too!

How to spatchcock a chicken or turkey!

Finishing some of Cheryl's drafts... Keeping spatchcocking simple. Using a VERY sharp cleaver or kitchen shears -- not scissors, carefu...
