Mama G’s Salsa in a Snap!

Mama G’s “Salsa in a Snap” Recipe Ideas
This incredibly versatile salsa mix can be used in many tasty dishes, at a very small cost per serving! One container makes 2 GALLONS of Fresh Salsa or sixteen 15 oz. cans of petite diced tomatoes into fresh salsa!  Delicious!  We served this at our “Celebrate Sisters” Event at Adrians this past week and used it in our Pepper Bellies, Guacamole & of course, fresh Salsa!  We served TONS of people…and didn’t even use one whole can!  It goes a long way!  Here are some other ideas…

Mama G’s Pepper Bellies

2 lbs. ground beef, seasoned with dried onions, garlic, salt & pepper and  browned
*Note: You can make this ahead of time and freeze until needed.
2 – 15 oz. cans chili beans
2 – 15 oz. cans petite diced tomatoes
2 – 15 oz. cans tomato sauce
1 level scoop of Mama G’s Salsa in a Snap seasoning mix (more if you like it spicier!)

Fritos (regular kind…not the scoops)
Toppings:  Choose what you like, or what you have in the fridge!

shredded cheddar cheese
shredded lettuce
sour cream
guacamole
sliced black olives
sliced jalapeno peppers
picante sauce

Place slow cooker liner in your crock pot.  Put in browned hamburger, undrained chili beans, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes and Mama G’s seasoning. Stir together, put the lid on and let it cook until nice and hot (2-3 hours on high, or all day on low).  When time to serve, set up a “help yourself” bar with Fritos and all of the toppings, and let your family or guests choose how to top their Pepper Belly!

*Note: This is delicious with Dulce le Leche Cheesecake!
