Restaurant Review by Chet Groskreutz
CAFÉ RIO ---WAHOO’S ,FRESCA’S, AND ALL THE OTHER MEX RESTAURANTS----WATCH OUT!....THIS MEX RESTAURANT IS IN EVEN IN THE ZAGAT GUIDE!!!
Just in case you’ve haven’t heard…CAFÉ RIO just opened up in the old Winchell’s location on 17 th street …..
This restaurant chain started in St George ,Utah… a great place stop off for some excellent Mexican food on the way to or from conference, a winter ski trip, or for summer fishermen (on their way to/from their annual Beaver, Utah trout fishing pilgrimage)….
My favorite is the Pork Barbacoa taco, quesadilla, salad, enchilada, or ANTYTHING with the PORK BARBACOA!!! If you’ve ever had Hawaiian pork cooked in an Emu, this is BETTER!!!! ALOHA!!!!! It’s sweet, and soooooo tender it melts in your mouth. My taco was on a fresh tortilla ( made there right in front of you, TALK ABOUT FRESH!) with fresh cilantro, lettuce, and a lime…(you can choose from other veggies to add, but I say less is more….don’t smother the PORK BARBACOA taste). Next was the rice…hot ( temperature is just right, I hate it when rice is cold, not the case here) plus they put some nice mild spices and onions in the rice best rice in town!!! Umm, umm good…..You can choose black or pinto beans…again they are almost perfectly cooked and the temp is just right. The staff is part of the fun…they have energetic, friendly, and personable employees…that seem to be excited to be there, they shout and yell the orders back and forth and they are havin’ fun….a surprise in this type of restaurant.
The atmosphere is upbeat, bright lights, and the tables and chairs were colorful albeit a little crowded, they have their own CAFÉ RIO station playing in the restaurant and the sounds are cool…..a great place to take the family…..the three of us adults ate like kings and the bill was $23.00….super cheap!
As they say at Café Rio “HOLY GUACAMOLE!”

Turning Leftovers into Dinner
Leftovers - we all have them at least from time to time. What do you do with them? Do you have them for lunch, or do they just sit in the fridge for a few days and then you end up throwing them out? You can start saving some time and money by learning how to use those leftovers in new ways to surprise your family at dinner time.
Some people like leftovers and some do not. Still then, many will eat them one day out, but quickly get tired of eating the same thing over and over. Here’s a way to fix the problem if you or someone in your family is the same way. Let’s start with an example. You prepare a roasted pork loin and rice for dinner one night. The family wants something else for dinner the following night so the pork loin gets pushed to the back of the refrigerator. Normally, that’s where it will stay until you clean out the fridge, right? Not anymore. Let’s do something to keep that pork loin from going to waste.
Eating leftovers the way they were originally served, is probably what’s turning family members off from wanting it again the next night. Your family doesn’t have to eat the pork loin as is. So, chop that pork loin up into bite size pieces.
Now you’re probably thinking, ok that’s great, but what do I do with it now? In a large skillet or wok, stir fry the leftover rice with a bag of frozen veggies, an egg, and some of the chopped pork loin to make pork fried rice. Add a little soy sauce and you’ve got a whole new dinner for your hungry family.
This is just one way that leftovers can be turned into a new dish with a new flavor. The same can also be done using chicken, seafood, or beef. Let’s take a look at beef.
If you have hamburgers left from dinner, chop them up until they resemble ground beef again. The meat can be combined with chili powder and taco sauce to make beef tacos. Or, add some beans, chopped peppers and tomatoes, and sauce to create a pot of chili. If you have the imagination, there are an unlimited number of possibilities of what you can do with meats and side dishes from a previous night’s dinner.
Using a little leftover magic can make one meal last for two, three, or even four more days. But, you don’t have to eat it all in the same week. Fix a new meal with the leftovers and freeze it until you are ready to have that particular meat again. On that day, dinner will already be made, all you’ll need to do is heat it up. Yes, it really can be just that simple.
Your family will be amazed at your ability to transform any meal into a new creation they will enjoy. Besides that, you will save money on your grocery bill and won’t be throwing it away in the trash can as spoiled leftovers. Try these and similar ideas to expand your family’s palate.

How to Grill a Whole Chicken
1. Remove the giblets from the cavity and rinse the chicken under cold water. Pat it dry with paper towels and season inside and out with salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons minced fresh basil, cilantro, rosemary, sage, tarragon or thyme.
2.Prepare a bed of hot coals in a charcoal grill. Rake the coals to one side; you'll grill your chicken next to the coals, but not over them. Alternatively, turn only one of your gas grill burners on high heat, leaving half of the grill unlit.
3. Brush the hot grill grate clean with a stiff wire brush. Using tongs to hold a small, clean (but expendable) towel, thinly coat the grill rack with oil.
4. Put the chicken breast-side-down on the unheated side of the grill. Cook, covered, for about 30 minutes, then turn it breast-side-up and continue grilling until the skin in golden brown and the meat is cooked through, about 30 more minutes.
5. Check for doneness by cutting into the middle of a piece of chicken. The juices should run clear when you cut into the thickest part of the piece.
6.Let the chicken sit about 15 minutes before carving.

Quick Tips From Debbie
Frugal Fabric Softeners
Using 1/4 cup vinegar in your laundry’s rinse cycle keeps clothes soft. You can set aside a vinegar jug just for laundry and add about 2 dozen drops of your favorite essential oil to the vinegar if you’d like (or as much EO as you feel necessary).
In a pail mix 1 gallon of water and 1 cup concentrated liquid fabric softener. Dip a sponge or washcloth in the liquid, squeeze out excess and toss in the dryer with your laundry. Seal pail when not in use.
Pour liquid fabric softener and hot water in a spray bottle (50/50 mix) and lightly mist wet laundry before starting the dryer. Two or three good shots should do it. You could also just spritz a clean washcloth and toss that in the dryer.
Cut dryer sheets in thirds or halves, use one strip per dryer load.
Mix equal parts hair conditioner and water and store in spray bottle. Mist a washcloth or sponge and toss in dryer with wet load.
Use about 1/4 to 1/2 of the liquid fabric softener that they recommend on the bottle.
1/8 cup baking soda added to laundry and 1/4 cup vinegar in the rinse cycle.
Use a Downy ball if you have one–just use vinegar instead.
Soak a washcloth in full strength liquid fabric softener. Wring out excess, then lay out to dry first before using–helps prevent staining laundry the first time. To use: toss the dried washcloth in the dryer and use again and again until it no longer works. Resoak when needed (you should be able to do a few dozen dryer loads per fabric softener soak).
Homemade Fabric Softener Recipe
1 part Vinegar
1 part Baking Soda
2 parts Hot Water
Place a pail large enough to hold double the amount of ingredients in the kitchen sink or bathtub. Mix the baking soda and water in the pail, stir till the powder is dissolved. Then add the vinegar.
Remember that baking soda and vinegar reacts with fizzing, so use a big pail to account for this. Once it’s stopped fizzing, pour into clean bottles, cap, then use 1/4 cup per rinse cycle.
Updated Info: The baking soda won’t be completely dissolved, just shake the bottle to mix the batch up before adding to the rinse cycle.

Use a Downy ball if you have one–just use vinegar instead.
Soak a washcloth in full strength liquid fabric softener. Wring out excess, then lay out to dry first before using–helps prevent staining laundry the first time. To use: toss the dried washcloth in the dryer and use again and again until it no longer works. Resoak when needed (you should be able to do a few dozen dryer loads per fabric softener soak).
Homemade Fabric Softener Recipe
1 part Vinegar
1 part Baking Soda
2 parts Hot Water
Place a pail large enough to hold double the amount of ingredients in the kitchen sink or bathtub. Mix the baking soda and water in the pail, stir till the powder is dissolved. Then add the vinegar.
Remember that baking soda and vinegar reacts with fizzing, so use a big pail to account for this. Once it’s stopped fizzing, pour into clean bottles, cap, then use 1/4 cup per rinse cycle.
Updated Info: The baking soda won’t be completely dissolved, just shake the bottle to mix the batch up before adding to the rinse cycle.
