RAOK: Kroger coupons and cats....I need Rotel recipes!!! WINNER: Kremsh!!!!

[XUfan]

I'm looking for Kroger shoppers who love to cook!!! Here's why:

The mega sale is almost over, and I'm totally overstocked on Rotel tomatoes. I know about the dip with Velveeta....and I make a mean Mexican rice, and of course everyone knows that you use them in chili. But...I want to know what you use them for! Post your recipes that use Rotel as an ingredient. And remember...just like the Iron Chef judges, I'm looking for originality!!!

I have an envie full of coupons from Kroger mailers, along with some Catalinas I've picked up in the past few weeks. I'll have my family look over the recipes on Sunday morning, and let them decide which one I should make. That one will be my winner!!!

OK...let's be creative!!!!

2 1/2 cups water
1 15 oz can beans, drained and rinse

When ready to serve add lime juice. Serve with grated cheese (from the Kraft deal, of course) and crushed tortilla chips on top.

Boca Enchiladas:

Cook up some of the Boca crumbles (I know you have a meat allergy XU, is the boca stuff ok?)

Make a mix of:
can of enchilada sauce
I throw in some cooked white rice or spanish rice
the rotel tomatoes

wrap in tortilla
cover with more sauce and cheese
bake

yum!

DH even loves this, and he detests the boca stuff.

Good stuff so far!! Keep 'em coming!

And yes...I do have an allergy to all meats (beef, pork and poultry), although I can eat any type of fish or seafood. BUT...my family eats lots of meat, so if your recipe has meat in it, I can still use it!

This is what I made the other day...

1 can rotel
2 cans black beans
1 can chicken broth
1# sausage (I used breakfast because that is what I had)
1t. cumin
1 hacked up onion
salt and pepper to taste.

Brown sausage, drain fat. Add other ingredients simmer for a little while then eat. Pretty tasty and made from stuff around the house. You could leave out the meat and use veggie broth if you wanted.

Also you could mash half the beans to have a thicker soup. It was good but spicy.

Pretty simple...hope I win.

You can throw a can in your spaghetti sauce also goes well in meatloaf. I don't use actual recipies I just toss stuff in and hope for the best.

Mix 2 cans of Rotel with a can of condensed cream of celery soup. Awesome sauce for enchiladas, burritos, nachos, beans and cheese, etc. We also put the sauce on scrambled eggs.

I always use them to make----

Chicken Spaghetti

1-2 can Rotel (I always drain mine)
1 package spaghetti
2 jars of Ragu Cheese sauce
Grilled chicken or shredded turkey breast How ever much you like
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 can cream of mushroom soup (depends on how creamy you want it...you may want to skip this)
1/2 cup onions (saute)
Salt/pepper to taste

Cook spaghetti as usual, drain. Add rotel, cheese sauce, onions, grilled chicken, cream of mushroom soup and 1/2 cup cheddar cheese( I like mine cheesy so I always add extra cheese) and salt/pepper to taste. Top with remaining cheese and bake for 35 minutes at 350 degrees.

totally not original, but i made taco soup the other day w/ my free rotel! i accidentaly bought original instead of mild, and WHEW! boy was it hot! had to add lots of sour cream to tone it down.

brown 1 lb ground beef w/ onion to taste
drain
add the rest of the ingredients and heat to boiling:
1 can rotel
1 can tomato sauce
1 jar taco sauce
1 packet taco seasoning
1 can corn
1 can beans (i omit this... not a bean fan)

It's not a formal recipe...

But we made sauce from ours (for noodles)

1 can of rotel mild
3 cans of tomato paste
2 cans of mushrooms
1 diced green pepper
i *think* there was 1/2 cup of olive oil
a few pinchs of basil

and pour it on some noodles.

Dh said it was really good! (don't tell him i used ro tel though!) he claims he hates it! lmao
