This queso recipe is extremely creamy, cheesy, hearty and WONDERFUL. I get requests for it from friends and family every time there is a get-together. There is a ‘secret’ ingredient in it that I think makes a yummy difference.
2 (10 count) cans flaky biscuits (Grands Jr)
1 lb sausage (Tennessee Pride)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
12 oz bag Barilla Cheese & Spinach Tortelini (find them in the dry pasta aisle)
4 oz bacon or pancetta, (about 4 strips bacon)*
3 cloves garlic, pressed in garlic press or finely minced
2 Tbs flour
2 C milk
¾ tsp kosher salt
⅛ tsp black pepper
1 1/2 tsp dry basil
¼ tsp red pepper flakes (1/2 tsp or more if you like spicy)
1 medium lemon
2 C loosely packed fresh spinach, roughly chopped
¾ C grated mozzarella cheese, divided
¾ C grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1 pound of grass fed beef
2 fresh chorizo sausages, casings removed (about 1/2 pound)

Hello! I hope you are all having a great day today. Here in Colorado we went from 75 to 38 and rain/snow mixture. Spring time in the Rockies is so much fun :) So today I whipped up some Paleo Zuppa Toscana and realized I didn't have this recipe on my website. You may not be aware of this but I made this website for our two older children (22-20) so that when they moved out they had an easy reference to go to when they wanted some comfort food or just some advice. That being said I thought I would do a little tutorial for the kiddos.
Ingredients
2.5-3lbs. pork shoulder, cut into several big chunks
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
1/2 cup of fresh squeezed orange juice
1 tablespoon maple syrup (make sure it is 100% pure maple syrup)
