Directions

In the vein recently started by Doug from BC and others, I thought I'd share with the list a simple something I whipped up for dinner last night.

Having not been shopping for a few days, there was not much in the house- however, I did have, secreted in the freezer, some frozen green chile (souvenir of a New Mexico trip earlier this year.) Put all of the above in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened by about ⅓. Pour over your favorite pasta (I used rigatoni), and eat.

Took about 10 minutes and was a heck of a lot better than the leftover lasagna that was the alternative...

Note: this is scaled for one person, as my SO isn't much of a chile-head.

Scale up to your heart's content.
