What are some recipes with stew meat?except beef stew.?

We Answered:

Swiss Steak

Flour and brown meat in any type of cooking oil in skillet. Saute a sliced onion. Add a teaspoon of garlic.

Add one large can of Stewed Tomatoes including the liquid (I think its a 20 ounce - but any size will work) - breaking tomatoes up a bit.

Add salt & pepper - simmer for about 1 hour - add water if necessary to keep a good amount of "sauce" for serving.

Serve over mashed potatoes (or rice or noodles - whatever you prefer).

What is the White Mexican Cheese dip they serve in restaurants called?

We Answered:

3 Lb white American cheese ( Use Queso Blanco Instead )
2 Cup half and half
1 Cup heavy cream
1 Cup sour cream
1 Cup salsa (your favorite recipe)
1-1/2 T. Lawry's Seasoned Salt (or your favorite seasoning)
1 Tbl Tabasco sauce

Pico de Gallo

2 Cups ripe tomatoes chopped
1/2 Cup chopped onions
2 Tbl minced fresh jalapeno or serrano chiles
2-3 T. chopped fresh cilantro
3 Tbl fresh lime juice
Salt and pepper to taste

For queso: cut white cheese into 1 to 2 inch cubes, set aside. Combine all ingredients, except cheese and Pico de Gallo in microwave-safe dish. Add cheese and microwave on high for 4 minutes, stop and stir and repeat twice; then reduce to 2 minutes until mixture is hot and well mixed.

Recipe can be reduced by half or a third.

Pico de Gallo

Combine tomatoes, onions, chiles, salt, cilantro and lime juice in bowl.

Let set for at least 30 minutes to an hour. Drain before placing on top of queso.

Food editor's notes: It can also be made in a slow cooker to keep it hot and to avoid a skin forming on the surface. You can adjust the heat level easily with salsa, pico de gallo and Tabasco.
