Finely chop 2 tablespoons of fresh basil and add to ¼ cup Chef LaLa Homemade Chipotle Oil. Heat oil on a low flame for 10 minutes in order to infuse basil flavor. Set aside to cool.
Meanwhile, slice fresh tomato and fresh mozzarella. Stack on a plate and drizzle with basil infused Chef LaLa Homemade Chipotle Oil. Top with sliced scallions.

The simplest things in life are the best! I took ½ pound of green beans, rinsed them and trimmed them. In a hot pan, I added 1 Tablespoon of Chef LaLa Homemade Chipotle Flavored Oil. Then I tossed the green beans for 3–5 minutes. Season with kosher salt.
YUM!

One of the ways I keep healthy is by making several meals out of one main meal I cooked on the weekend — like a Roasted Chicken. Now if you don’t have the time to roast your own chicken, pick one up at the grocery store, It is a healthy quick alternative to fast food.
I take 1 cup of water, 1 bottle of Chef LaLa Homemade Tomatillo – Jalapeño Green Sauce and 1/2 of cooked chicken sheredded and cook for 5–10 minutes on low until it simmers and heats through.
Meanwhile I heat some corn tortillas on the stove until pliable. I fill them with chicken and done!
Servings: Depends on how fat your tacos are ;) — around 6–8 tacos.
Tortilla espanola is traditionally served at room temperature making it a perfect item for a family get together Easter Brunch.
