Homemade Chipotle!

So last night I made homemade Chipotle for my whole family including Randy. :)

It took me two days to make! But soo worth it. This long post made of many different recipes might take me a while to post since I customized everything haha. :)

Tortillas-

I bought 10" standard large tortillas from a Mexican supermarket but any tortillas will suffice. If you can get your hands on some huge 12"-13" tortillas I'd suggest doing it! The tortilla's texture threw off the burrito but it was still great!

Cheese-

One part shredded white cheddar cheese, two parts shredded monterey jack cheese. Mix well.

Sour cream-

12 oz. Daisy sour cream plus 1 tablespoon water. Combine with a whisk over very low heat on a stove top. Keeping whisking until you get a thin, creamy texture. Then take off heat & serve.

Rice-

I tried combining a couple methods of rice & it was good, but it definitely could have been better. The rice got mushy. This is what I'd do next time:

2 tbsp oil (canola/vegetable/olive)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 tbsp - 1/4 cup lime juice

1 tsp- 1 tbsp salt (kosher)

2 cups long grain white rice

4 cups water

As you can see I keep the amount of lime juice & salt a broad range because that's completely preferance. I like a lot of lime. Just add both to taste. Same could go with the cilantro. :)

Bring the rice & water to a boil then bring it down to low & let it simmer covered for 15-20 minutes. Turn off the heat & let the rice steam & fluff for 5-10 minutes. Remove the rice from the pot & put it in the mixing bowl. Add the oil & everything else to the rice & mix fully.

Enjoy :)

Chicken-

Beans-

Guac-

2 Hass Avocados

1/3 of a Jalapeno pepper, seeded, and minced

1/4 of a red onion, finely chopped

2+ heaping Tablespoons of Cilantro, finely chopped

1/4 of a lime, juiced

1/4 teaspoon salt

Combine all of the ingredients into a bowl, and mash together until smooth. Add additional lime juice, cilantro or salt to taste.

Corn salsa-

6 Ears Sweet Yellow Corn

2 Poblano Chilies

1/2 Red Onion

2 Red (or Green) Jalapenos

1/3 Cup Chopped Cilantro

1 Tablespoon Lime Juice

Salt and Pepper to Taste

Roast the corn and Poblano chilies on a grill or BBQ and let cool. Cut the corn off the cob. Dice the Poblano chilies, onion, and red jalapenos. Combine all the ingredients and season to taste.

*I used frozen corn, boiled it for like 2 minutes then roasted it in the oven along with the Poblano Chiles.
