Hatch Hash.

Happy Happy Wednesday y'all!

This week is flying by for me. I have a job interview today. Game face on. Let's talk about how I have not even begun to get sick of Hatch Chile season yet. I just relish in going to the grocery store and seeing the barrels of bright green peppers. Hatch Chile season only comes once a year...so get them while they are hot! No pun intended. This year I am determined to buy a bunch, roast them, and freeze them so that I will have an endless winter supply...Hatch Chile cornbread stuffing anyone? I'm thinking yes. 

So, remember that taco recipe I posted yesterday? Well, that was Monday night dinner. We had a double dose of Hatch Chile's that night and let me tell you, this dish knocked my freaking socks off. Not only is it simple...but the flavors...oh mah gawd! This may be my new go to meal.

It all starts with a sweet potato, people...

peel and cube that sucker.

Then we cube some zucchini, and chop some garlic and of course, Hatch Chile's!

A little saute, a dash of salt and pepper, and a handful of fresh cilantro...

BADA-BING
