Chili Verde

Yesterday, Gino roasted and made himself some Chili Verde for the first time ever. Enjoy!

8 peppers roasting in the oven.

It was great to watch him watch the peppers in oven; like a little kid in a candy store! He also shared great stories of his Grandma Tee doing this exact same thing when he was a kid.

Roasting up nicely! The skin would pop and a few times made Gino and I jump!

The smell bothered me but it’s not as bad as pinto beans in a crock pot!

Time to turn them.

All roasted up and ready to steam in the bowl.

After letting the peppers “rest” in a bowl, he took out the seeds and took off the skin.

The “meat” of the pepper.

Gino kept telling me that I would be able to take the “heat” from these peppers. I didn’t believe him because they smelled HOT to me.

Chopped up.

Gino’s Chili Verde!

By the time he actually got to eat it, it was to hot for me to eat but at least he got to enjoy it!
