This Month’s Cooking Challenge Recipe Is…

Chile Colorado
This chile colorado is my family’s tried and true recipe. It combines tender pieces of beef with a rich and flavorful red chile sauce. Serve with Mexican rice and corn tortillas for an authentic and traditional Mexican dinner!

About the Cooking Challenge
The Isabel Eats Cooking Challenge is a monthly cooking club aimed to help motivate and inspire you to get in the kitchen.
My goal is to bring together our virtual community and celebrate our love of delicious Mexican food.
Each month, I’ll pick a recipe for the Isabel Eats community to make. Then all you have to do is snap a photo of the dish, and email it to me for a chance to win a $100 Amazon gift card! To help our team develop the best recipes, we appreciate your feedback and ask that you leave a comment and star rating on the recipe, but its not required.
Last Month’s Challenge Recap
