  • I made an awesome dinner last night.

    I'm really proud of this one.

    For a starter I had this:

    http://www.elise.com/recipes/archives/000225ceviche.php

    The recipe calls for 2 pounds of red snapper. At $17.99 a pound, I couldn't buy 2 pounds, so I bought 1 pound red snapper, and 1 pound of wild caught salmon for $11.99 per pound.

    I served the ceviche in lettuce cups, and had tortilla chips for our guests.


    I made a Chipotle Slaw:

    2 bags of prepared shredded cabbage
    2/3 c of mayo. I used Dukes
    3 chipotle peppers in adobo
    1/4 c. diced purple onion
    1 teaspoon of fresh lime juice
    sea salt and pepper to taste

    The slaw was good on it's own, but we started wrapping it up with the cerviche in lettuce wraps. It was awesome.

    Then I stole the recipe for Pork Carnitas from the Crock Pot thread.

    I had corn tortillas for hubby and our guests and I ate mine in lettuce wraps.

    We served wedges of lime, shredded cheese, sliced olives, fresh salsa, avocado and cilantro with the carnitas. They were a hit.

    I'll definitely make this again.

        If I had been invited and if you lived closer I probably would have done.

          You guys should move to Florida. Apart from the hurricanes, killer tornados and sharks, it's pretty nice here.
