Being away from the food you enjoy tends to make you think about food a lot. I offer this recipe of my own creation that I used to make when I felt I could cheat on my calorie budget a bit.
- 1 can canned spicy chili without beans
- 1 bag Tostitos
- 1 jar hot Pace picante sauce
- 1 bag shredded Tex Mex cheese
- 1 can pickled jalapeños
- 1 tub sour cream
On a microwaveable plate, place a layer of Tostitos. Sprinkle chili on top, then a handful of cheese, then picante sauce. On top of that add another layer of Tostitos, chili, cheese, and picante sauce. Finally a third layer of Tostitos, chili, cheese and a dozen jalapeño slices--but not picante sauce. Microwave for about 4 or 5 minutes. Then pour more picante sauce on top followed by 5 or 6 dollops of sour cream. Eat with beer. (Caution--this will burn your bum in the morning.)
It's the perfect snack for nights watching The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Family Guy, South Park, Washington Journal segments, House and Senate committee and subcommittee meetings, press conferences, and forums and panel discussions on C-SPAN and C-SPAN2 (+ BookTV).
