INSTRUCTIONS
Garlic Puree - peel 8 whole heads of garlic by smashing the cloves with the side of a wide knife; the peel will slip off easily then. Put the peeled garlic in a blender with about 2 cups of water, and puree. Drain, if necessary, and store in a tightly closed glass jar in the refrigerator. ** Combination Cheese - To come as close as possible to the taste of the cheese of Mexico (which is not readily available in the United States), we devised what I call "combination cheese". It is equal parts shredded yellow cheddar, provolone and jack cheeses. In an 8-quart stock pot, place water and beef stock and bring to the boil. Add salt, garlic puree, green chile, onion and evaporated milk. Simmer 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more chile, if you like. Add cooked potatoes and tomatoes and simmer 10 minutes more. To serve, place 6 or 8 cubes of cheese in warm bowls and ladle soup over the cheese. May be refrigerated for use the next day or frozen for later use.

A Message from our Provider:
“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
