Amy's Cheese Tamale Verde

Made with organic corn masa, tomatillos and rice. Gluten free. Family owned since 1988. No genetically engineered ingredients - GMOs.

When Amy's family first discovered the Tamale Verde at their favorite restaurant in Puerto Escondido, Mexico, they couldn't believe how good it tasted, and kept ordering it over and over again. Amy's dad hoped that we could re-create the recipe for this wonderful authentic Mexican dish and offer it to Amy's customers. That was easier said than done. It took three years to perfect - to grow organic tomatillos (which are the heart of salsa verde) and to make the salsa so that it was just right. All the ingredients are carefully selected and prepared. The organic masa (ground and cooked corn) is poured onto individual parchments, filled with mixture of monterey Jack cheese, chiles and jalapenos, and then folded and steamed. The tamales are then unwrapped by hand, topped with our delicious verde sauce and served with a side of Spanish rice made from organic brown rice and organic black beans. This delightful tamale dinner is a favorite throughout Mexico and will become a favorite of yours as well. 0 g trans fat. No added MSG. No preservatives.

In 1987, when Amy was born, we found we had little time to prepare the quality food we usually ate. Realizing there were others like us, we established Amy's Kitchen to produce convenient, nourishing meals for people who love good food but are often too busy to cook. Made with the highest quality ingredients and prepared with the same loving attention in our kitchens as is used in the home kitchen. Amy's meals contain no meat, fish, shellfish, poultry, eggs or peanuts and are absolutely delicious. Made in USA.
