Yes, sounds good.

>> For the taco seasoning, I used the following:
>> 2 teaspoons hot chili powder
>> 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
>> 1 teaspoon onion powder
>> 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
>> 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
>> 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
>> 1/2 teaspoon oregano
>> 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
>> 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
>> 1 pinch red pepper flakes
>> Add 1/2 water and simmer.

I think you could add  about 1 or 2 Tablespoons of flour if you wanted a
saucier-consistency  - but typically the spices being ground so fine take care
of that.  Never hurts to experiment. :)

>> For the canned salsa con queso, I used:
>> 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
>> 1/2 onion, diced
>> 1 tomato, diced
>> 10 large roasted green chile peppers, seeded and chopped
>> 1/2 cup shredded queso asadero (white Mexican cheese)
>> 1/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
>> 1/4 cup milk
>> salt to taste
>> Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the
>> onion and tomato; cook and stir until the onion has softened and
>> turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the green chile; cook for 2
>> minutes then stir in the cheese and milk. Reduce heat to low and
>> simmer, stirring frequently, until the cheese has melted.

> I've got some home made salsa on hand, maybe try using some of that?

>> I added about 1/2 cup chunky salsa to the above salsa con queso.

Yes, I added about half a bottle of salsa to the melted cheese :)

> Hot, to knock out some congestion?

To keep the son happy haha

Ron enjoyed the dinner as well since by then he had about enough of chicken
soup :)

Take care,
Janis
