I don't really know what cowboys eat. I mean I always thought it would be something like beef jerky or Ranch Style Beans. My guess is they like stuff with with salsa and green chiles. That sounds cowboy-ish. I like stuff with salsa and green chiles. I'm not a cowgirl. I would be if Mr. Devilish Dish would take a hint and buy me a horse. That's not much to ask for. I promise to feed it apples and hay everyday. In the meantime, the closest thing I'm going to get to that is wearin' my boots while I make this awesome side dish. You boil the potatoes first, with the skin on, so they are almost tender. Then you layer them with a tasty mixture of sour cream, cheese, salsa and green chiles. Top with bread crumbs and paprika and you've got one heck of a side dish whether you're a cowboy or not!

That looks really good! Quick and easy too. I think I might try it and leave out the green chilies. I'm a wuss when it comes to spicy :)
ReplyDeleteThe canned green chiles are pretty mild, but you could totally leave them out or substitute bell pepper or anything else you like!
ReplyDeleteI'm a wuss when it comes to real spicy food, but I ADORE green chiles! I'm always adding them to something.
ReplyDeleteThis dish looks great. Great music too, by the way LOL
I love green chilies too. I have had some really hot ones in New Mexico but the canned ones are pretty mild. My husband loves poblano peppers. He thinks they add alot of flavor without too much spice. That being said, he would add habanero too.
