Chile Colorado
We make this Chile Colorado for my Mexican husband, who also doesn't like tomatoes in his chile. This is a traditional Mexican-style dish. If you decide to add beans, do it after the chile is finished. Serve with chopped onion, sliced green onion, shredded Cheddar cheese, and sour cream.
