[@eyes2see438]

The love smell of garlic 🧄 and onions 🧅 caramelizing It’s such a beautiful fragrance. 🥰😋 I remember walking into my grandmothers house as she would be preparing this for all of us kids to eat for lunch.

[@rickyvalenz6410]

Bro great job displaying our regions delicious cuisine!!! Outstanding

[@JunkyardFox]

Thank you!

[@paulsmith380]

Looks fabulous! I wonder how that would be with some andoille sausage. Keep the campfire recipes coming!

[@egyptmachine]

I love calabacitas 🤩

[@cindy1568]

Junkyard Fox I'm 2 minutes in and salivating already. 💜

[@ccrespin34]

Love seeing my hometown Organ mountains!

[@TheStrayOutdoors]

Grew up on this back in Mexico. Glad someone can put this out there and hopefully break the “tacos and burritos” stigma. 👍🏼

[@JunkyardFox]

True, theres so many other southwest dishes most folks have no clue about

[@jesusvelasco7602]

Good job in showcasing the local environment and in demonstrating just one way of making calabacitas.

[@JunkyardFox]

i appreciate the view, brother

[@livingsurvival]

Man I wish we lived closer. We gotta do a catch and cook colab after Covid.

[@jeffslaven]

You two should colab on a camping cook book. I'd buy it :)

[@JunkyardFox]

very true ben, some hunting and fishing plus some camp cooking would be an awesome adventure. hopefully this covid things blows over soon.

[@lorettagallagher]

Thoroughly Enjoyed This Episode. 🍷

[@JunkyardFox]

[@NOMADVANNER]

[@RawFeeding101]

Another great one in the books gentlemen!!

[@JunkyardFox]

Glad you enjoyed it, brother!

[@Disciplined-Trax]

Thanks for the content. Peaceful. Nice to see this to help step away from the dark reality we all face daily

[@JunkyardFox]

thats exaclty what we try to go for. these videos are meant to teach skills, recipes, etc, but its also a refuge from all the ugliness of the world.

[@wordprefecto]

Welcome to Las Cruces! Enjoy your time here

[@JunkyardFox]

Thank you! Will do!

[@3bears]

They're always quality and well filmed vids, but the Cuervo Negro soundtracks really knock it out of the park for me

[@PatrickBurnhamTech]

Junkyard fox turning into the CHUNKyard fox. Love you man. Good to see you grow and fill out a little bit over the years. Great dish I hope to try this in the field soon.

[@JunkyardFox]

lol very true. last years quarantine and closing of the gym, plus you can tell i love to cook, i put on some pounds lol this year im getting back to hitting the gym and hiking more. cheers!

[@alexanderbertallo1995]

Since I've choosen to eat vegetarian I get really turned off by all the meat eating presented in many bushcraft and survival channels... I highly appreciate that you went for a vegetarian stew in this episode! Much love from Switzerland

[@cactusastuces]

Wonderful my friend thanks for sharing

[@JunkyardFox]

Thanks for visiting

[@thefathiker1]

This is why I love this channel. Made this for the first time with this video. Delicious.

[@JunkyardFox]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@juansaldana5408]

I love that recipe I grew up on that except my grandma used to put Monterey Jack cheese

[@brushbum7508]

GOOD DINNER & GOOD TUNES GUYS ! TAKE CARE..

[@fspec8529]

Good audio work when chopping veggies. Also enjoyed the track when the chilies were roasting

[@s.leemccauley7302]

Squash , onion, green Chile sometimes and cheese sometimes were part if every day when the garden kicked in production when I was growing up...many years ago now....

[@LLBrown-uf6wl]

Great food and beautiful scenery. My only change to the recipe would have been a couple of extra cloves of garlic LOL

[@JunkyardFox]

True, i love garlic

[@ronniehenwood8580]

That meal looks delicious. I don't know if I would change a thing. Its perfect!

[@JunkyardFox]

Thank you 😋

[@jhunter213]

I cant wait for the uploads...cheers guys!!! The clouds rolling over the rocky cliff tops is priceless.

[@JunkyardFox]

thank you, hoping to get a catch n cook video next week

[@jeffslaven]

Oh man, I could practically TASTE that! Maybe add a small can of beans? Great video James!

[@JunkyardFox]

Great idea!

[@lovebikesmustride]

Man that made my mouth water.

[@herbertmace2456]

Was away for awhile its good to be back Looks delicious!

[@JunkyardFox]

Welcome back!

[@onmyway7363]

Ohhhhh Looks 👍 great. Thank you for your work.

[@efjefe]

Gotta have Jalapeños. Love it with grilled corn tortillas.

[@biglou4452]

What Beautiful scenery and place it is to cook🙏

[@JunkyardFox]

most definitely

[@OutOfNameIdeas2]

Looks amazing. Love that it's also vegetarian. I love to go camping so i will probably make this next time I do :)

[@JunkyardFox]

Hope you enjoy

[@gerardov.9716]

Oh yeah.

[@nichole2861]

Loved this recipe. If I was making this plant based I would try to use canned coconut crème and some corn starch to thicken the stew.

[@bigjimwvmtman9995]

Great Squash soup. Would try cabbage also. Cabbage is in season when squash is in my neck of woods.

[@chrisbearnson9578]

Another great one, thanks James!

[@joaquin-jacknava2696]

That dish looks amazing. Thanks James hope your doing well brother. Be safe

[@JunkyardFox]

Thanks, you too!

[@dsknives310]

Man mucho bueno😋....one of my Dear Mamas go to meals. She added garbanzo beans along with some Puerquito or Pork chops on the side. Dang so 💣! Thx Fellas & nice touch with the blue corn chips. 💯%🔥....👊🏼.

[@notfamousprepper7369]

James - Outstanding! Going to try this for sure. Many thanks for the knowledge. Great camera and music work by Cuervo as always.

[@JunkyardFox]

Awesome, thank you!

[@peterlindquist9369]

Looks great! Regards from Sweden

[@blueghost4121]

An over easy egg on top would be BOMB!!!!

[@rickwhitson2804]

OMG. That looks amazing

[@orlandog.8036]

Hello from Alamogordo! I watch your videos all the time. I like your recipe, I also add a little cilantro and a little lime. The blue corn tortilla chips was a great addition I've never thought of. I am not to far away from you, and know some good fishing spots. A few trout, and catfish spots in the mountains, that arent over run with tourist, hit me up.

[@alexwbanks70]

More green chilis of course! Looks great though. I miss that area.

[@NKG416]

got my meal ready!

[@elmasgrifo1]

Delicioso! One of my favorite foods growing up!

[@jbkgjbkg]

Tried this today with some friends, it was super tasty! Thanks for the recipe!

[@asintonic]

James super delicious recipe. I add thin steak to that dish or shredded chicken. Ah Mexican rice and fried beans YUMMMY.

[@karinay6774]

Exactly how i make my calabacitas. Except for the green chile, I use poblano pepper! Great video as always :)

[@JunkyardFox]

Sounds great! i need to start using poblanos more often. happy new year, Karina!

[@shovelhead8]

Never saw stew with cheese before. Thank you for sharing your recipe with us, James. Stay safe and stay warm.

[@edwardschwimmer5999]

Why is it every time I watch one of your cooking videos that I always find highly entertaining I always feel the need to grab for the TUMS

[@True-Tails]

Looks good!

[@harvestblades]

I miss NM, & some Hatch Green Chile!

[@mudinmyeye2881]

Love that stuff

[@The13thProphet_]

Made some of this awhile back after seeing this video and it was super good, making some again today

[@zachb1494]

Calabacitas to me is just fried squash and canned corn with diced jalapeños and tortillas. Great side with enchiladas. Love your channel dude. Those green chiles look great, as does your dish

[@JunkyardFox]

Hope you enjoy, mmm enchiladas sound great

[@sakko406]

Great video...the stew looked amazing!

[@jamesroyrodgers1434]

I love watching all of your videos, especially your cooking’s videos. I used to live in west Texas and eastern New Mexico, now I am back where I am from east Texas. Anytime I see any of your videos it makes me want to grab some food and go to the woods!

[@JunkyardFox]

That is awesome! campfire food is the best

[@blueghost4121]

Can you make a video about pinion pine resin?? I see the trees in the background in your videos all the time. Soooo many uses for that stuff. I actually make soap with it and mustache wax.

[@tapcam4822]

I love calabacitas con queso thanks for sharing, i always knew how to cook them but i wanted to watch the video anyway... greetings from Nogales Sonora

[@jeanslosek8304]

Hi Noggy. I'm more or less right down the road from you! AZ-US side, Green Valley which is on I-19, halfway between Nogales & Tucson. I've only seen this recipe locally at the little Mexican meat market (i.e., 1 room converted former gas station where they BBQ out where the gas tanks used to be). I tried it tonight, tasted very good. ~Miss Jean

[@birdman6499]

Nice job. Excellent slicer of a knife.

[@JunkyardFox]

oh this thing is a scalpel

[@murrayoutdoors5753]

Great video.

[@daveherbert6215]

Going to give your recipe a try. What you call squash looks like courgette/zucchini to me, I live in the UK. If only I could get chillies that size in the Uk

[@rodneybetts6086]

Great Video. Thank you James.

[@JunkyardFox]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jeffgregory8758]

Other than some meat, possibly chicken, quail, or.pork, it looks delicious. 👌

[@Disciplined-Trax]

Viva Texas

[@craigbetts1586]

that did look like a excellent dish to eat

[@undercoverninja3384]

Sounds realy good thank you for sharing.

[@hiredgun7996]

Excellent cooking video and perfect Cuervo soundtrack for this. I appreciate the healthier vegetarian aspect, but I couldn't help think ow some pork would take it up another notch.

[@JunkyardFox]

Glad you enjoyed it! you can definitely add some meat or make this as a side dish to compliment steak or something

[@charliemendoza6130]

James add pork chops. Grill em over that fire chop em up and throw em in. Just a little more flavor! These look delicious

[@JunkyardFox]

Great idea

[@ContagiousDOTD]

Awesome video !!!!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻☺️

[@JunkyardFox]

Thanks for the visit

[@renoman_]

Nice camp spot !!!

[@JunkyardFox]

Yes it was! beautiful area

[@fredfreiberger7878]

I need to try this

[@lvalle1994]

Looks damn good dude! Gonna have to try your recipe out soon! 🤙

[@karmaclanton5544]

Looks great!!! Going to try this one for sure!!!😃🙃😀 Look perfect to me!!!

[@JunkyardFox]

It's so good! give it a shot

[@maxpower3050]

I will give it a try!!! I'd add cilantro (the master herb) to the vege stew.

[@JunkyardFox]

Sounds great!

[@reynaldorivera7641]

I was just thinking about making this

[@WisdomInTheWoods]

Meat! Nom Nom Nom and it’s Nom Nom! Nuff said 😬 brother!

[@JunkyardFox]

nothing beats a good campfire meal

[@jeanslosek8304]

This is a great recipe! I'm a real fan of soups and Mexican food in general (I recently retired to AZ... and love of Mexican food is one of the reasons). I have never seen this in a restaurant other than the take out area of the little Mexican meat market in my area (Green Valley). It's tasty, easy to cook, and makes good use of a lot of the "gotta eat them" leftover stuff I had in my fridge. Had to improvise a bit. I only made 1/2 the recipe because I don't usually have a lot of tomatos unless they are from my garden.... I also did not have Lawrey's seasoned salt, but substituted regular salt plus about 1 tsp. of powdered mole negro I had. I also skipped the corn, since I didn't have any of that at all... but I will try it next time. I used Oaxaca cheese (my favorite Mexican cheese) rather than the mix of Muenster & Queso Fresco. For people who live where they can't get Mexican cheeses I would suggest maybe a mix of Muenster and Mozzarella. At any rate, it was very yummy so thanks for the recipe. ALSO... I love all your survival food stuff. I worry here about might be happening to our economy and while I can't do full out survival stuff since I'm handicapped (mobility impaired)... it's comforting to learn how I can use things like cactus. Do you know is lizard eatable (I see them). And have you ever done (or would you consider doing) a video on how to make a snare to capture small birds, lizards, or bunnies? Thanks! ~Miss Jean

[@JunkyardFox]

im glad you enjoy our stuff! i love cooking, and i love getting outdoors, so youre gonna love our content.

[@herbsmith6871]

Looks tasty boys🤠

[@branch_preparedness]

This looks really good. I'm definitely giving it a try. Thanks for sharing.

[@JunkyardFox]

Hope you enjoy

[@luistakingover8256]

“ for da homies “ RESPECT 😭😎

[@joeyvazquez2394]

That's a great dish. I grew up on it. You should check out, if you haven't already, "De mi rancho a tu cocina". She cooks really rustic. Keep it up buddy.

[@robertogomez3698]

My mom's recipe is similar, she adds pulled chicken, but minus the cheese.

[@daghaalsuii]

Mmmmmm green chile...

[@CytoplasmicGoo]

I would add some sliced grilled hot dogs. But, it looks bomb just the way it is I probably wouldn't add a thing. Man, it's so pretty over there thanks for sharing.

[@JunkyardFox]

thank you for joining us

[@BUZZKILLJRJR]

That looks awesome! only thing I could say would bee maybe some cilantro, jalapenos chicken yum!! I got a try this both ways. My favorite Mexican dish is chile rellenos,wish I could make it !

[@JunkyardFox]

Dude i love chile relenos, i need to learn how to make them outdoors

[@rickc4317]

Yum!

[@jplamb77]

James,,,, Looks Great !!! Is there another name for Mexican squash,,??? Joshua

[@atrior7290]

Being french to me it is basically a spicy ratatouille with soft cheese, seems awesome !

[@JunkyardFox]

thats very true, i wonder if this dish’s recipe is derived from french cuisine.

[@clivewarren780]

I would be inclined to add some cactus and salsa to that

[@new2survival]

Love these cooking vids. But cheese and chilli's, it's going to be blazing saddles tonight

[@JunkyardFox]

Lol my stomach is used to it.

[@garyw8362]

Been enjoying your videos. How bout a link for that wool jacket. Keep them coming. I'm still working on getting up to date

[@gregorycalzada5264]

James excellent job. But where is the beef 🤔🤔🤔

[@NewMexico1912]

You should char the onion and tomato then get corn on the cob so you can char it too. It makes a better taste in Calabasitas or any salsa

[@aegismule13]

looks delicious :)

[@clivewarren780]

I love anything desert/mexican. More of these recipes would be awesome. Food videos seem to be quite hot these days.

[@nevillesavage2012]

Beautiful location brother. Where was this filmed in NM? I would add a little soy sauce. And I might try a little goat feta as well in mine :)

[@williammccaslin8527]

Ain't nothing wrong with that at all, in N. M. I had a Mexican vegetable stew w/ tortillas, an oh my god was it killer. So when channel popped up I knew I had to watch this, thx for the vid bro, thoroughly enjoyed it

[@JunkyardFox]

thank you for joining us!
