  I can’t find tomatio sauce anywhere here in Western Washington…

    The ebook with all the recipes is a part of the Kids Club.
    
    And it’s spelled tomatillo, if that helps.

Looks yummy, Leanne. I didn’t get what the sauce is made of. Maybe if I watch again you mentioned what was in that big measuring cup. Anyway, thanks!

  You can use canned or jar green sauce. It can be called green enchilada sauce, chile verde sauce or salsa, tomatillo sauce, etc.

    Careful though. Chile Verde actually has green chiles in it, not Tomatillos. VERY different tastes. Green chiles are spicy. Tomatillos are tart. If you want Tomatillo salsa or sauce, you need to check the ingredient label and make sure you’ve got a sauce with Tomatillos and not chiles. Much harder to find, too, depending on where you are.

  She kept calling it “sauce”, but I think it was actually just broth from when the pork was cooked. It looked like broth, and she said it was “from the pork”. ?? Threw me too.

It sounds really good. Note, however, that traditional Chile (with an “e”, not an “i”) Colorado is beef with red sauce. Pork with green chile sauce is Chile Verde. Colorado means “ruddy” or “red” in Spanish, and verde is “green” in Spanish

If you have any kind of a garden at all, even a little patch of earth, tomatillos are very, very easy to grow, super productive, and the green tomatillo salsa is as easy as pie to make! It’s not common here in Canada, either, but we make our own every year, just so that we can do yummy dishes like this one. Thanks again, Leanne.

Puerco (pwehr’co), not pork-o, por favor. Herdez makes an inexpensive canned tomatillo salsa with simple ingredients, btw: just tomatillos, onions, serrano peppers, iodized salt and cilantro. Nada mas. You can probably ask your grocer to order a case for you…they come in little 4 oz cans. It’s our favorite topping for Saturday morning beans and eggs, along with dressing up lots of dinners. Great with torn up chicken, too. Instead of lasagna noodles, you can repurpose torn up pita bread in the same way as long as there’s lots of moisture in the mix. I always like to sautee up some onions first, though….

this is not Chili Colorado. do you know that Colorado means red? What you made would better be called Chili Verde Kids. Although there is more to it than that.
