    Birthday dinner for my wife! Sparks steakhouse  
    That’s not fair 
    It was incredible. My wife and I met working at a restaurant 20 years ago. And one of our co workers from there had been at sparks for 11 years. So he always treats us like royalty when we visit him. 
    Nice to have friends like that I’m sure it was wonderful 😋
    Jose you let me know if you go there and I will let him know.

    Sparks is underrated. And you can walk in and get a table with no hassle. I always get the swordfish there.

    Agreed. Saturday you can zip right into the city, get parking on the block and not have to wait for a table. 

    However I will say, if you want to a beef Wellington then Harry’s is the spot.

    I made chicken tortilla soup. It came out really good. Has a spicy kick. But so much leftover. Two of these containers are going in the freezer. 

    One of the ingredients was a few tablespoons of chipotle chilis in adobo sauce. I had never used that before. It is so good. I plan to use it again next time I make chili.

    Yes. A little dollop of sour cream was so good in it.

    This is a staple in my house. We’ve been making it for years, with subtle variations each time. Honestly, it never gets old. Add in a little sour cream, Mexican cheese, and some fresh tortilla chips. Perfecto.

    I can see how you can make some variations with the veggies you add. This one just had black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, onions, garlic, and the chipote chili’s. When it was done cooking I also added in the juice of one lime. That really brightened it up.

    Looks great! Chipotles in adobo are amazing. We always have it in the house. So many things you can do with them. I like to use a spoonful of the sauce in my scrambled eggs. They are great in a simple black bean salad. We also mix them with kewpie mayo or plain yogurt for dips, wraps and sandwiches. Game changer.

    Since I only needed a few tablespoons I had a bunch of the chilis in adobo left over. I put them in a Tupperware in the fridge. Can they last a while or do they go bad pretty quick. I can see mixing some in mayo on a sandwich. I often mix mayo with sriracha or horseradish. I will give this a try.

    They do not last as long as horseradish or sriracha, but they will keep. Check the expiration date. Cover them tightly. There are some preservatives in the mix. If they smell good, then you can use them. They are cheap, so do not feel bad if you only use half. They are great in almost everything. We often make quesadillas with just chipotles and cheese. So simple and easy. Out of the can they make everything taste better. Chipotle spinach yogurt dip will be present during the football playoffs. Nachos with ground chicken or turkey and then the chipotle sauce. Sort of a healthy option, but not really  ;)
