Tex-Mex Carnitas Mac and Cheese<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s hard to think of American comfort food as more perfect than mac and cheese. Is it even possible for this dish to get tastier? Well, the people down at Texas Recipe Workbook<\/a> found a way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The addition of green chiles gives the dish a flavor and heat that mac and cheese are often lacking. Afraid of the heat? Don\u2019t worry. The creaminess of the cheese diffuses the spiciness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus, roasting them provides the dish with a beautiful smokiness. And don\u2019t even get us started on the crispy carnitas that tops it off. Just be careful. It\u2019s hard to stop eating this once you start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carne Picado<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re likely all familiar with the traditional American tacos that use ground beef, seasonings, hard shells, and a wide assortment of toppings. However, we think it\u2019s time to up the Mexican aspects of your favorite Tex-Mex dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, the geniuses at recipeworkbook.com<\/a> did just that with their Carne Picado. This dish uses minced beef instead of the usual ground beef. When you combine this savory flavor with roasted pepper, onions, and spice, you get a match made in heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Put them in a taco, along with your favorite toppings. Or, roll it up into a burrito. There\u2019s honestly no wrong choice when it comes to this dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
