Here is a fabulous new combination--a white creamy sauce with crawfish and a Southwestern flair!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1 tablespoon chopped Anaheim pepper
- 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
- Salt and pepper
- dash cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated skimmed milk

- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 bunch green onions, chopped
- 8 (10-inch) flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- In a pot coated with nonstick cooking spray, saute onion, Anaheim pepper, green pepper, garlic, salt and pepper, cayenne, and oregano until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add evaporated milk and simmer 10 minutes. Add sour cream but do not boil, stirring until well mixed. Remove from heat.
