Grandmarita said:Is it possible that Lettuce was supposed to be part of the Southwestern Trifle? All of the
ingredients sound good but it ends up being like a Salsa with just the ingredients listed.
ChefBeckyD said:I just got this recipe from my SD - it looks really good, and way to show the trifle bowl AND a ton of other tools!
babywings76 said:Becky, I am making this recipe today. Would you happen to know if she warms up the beans and the corn before she layers them? The recipe reads as if maybe they just go in cold. Just not sure if I'm doing it right. Also, do you think I should cube the corn bread, or is it supposed to be real crumbles?
A main dish trifle is a layered dish typically made with ingredients like meat, vegetables, grains, and sauce. It is usually served in a clear bowl or dish to showcase the layers.
To make a main dish trifle, you will need a clear bowl or dish, cooked and prepared ingredients such as meat, vegetables, and grains, and your choice of sauce or dressing. Begin by layering the ingredients in the dish, starting with the heaviest and heartiest layers on the bottom and finishing with lighter layers on top. Repeat the layering process until the dish is full, then garnish with herbs or cheese if desired.
Yes, you can make a main dish trifle in advance. However, it is best to assemble and refrigerate the dish no more than 24 hours before serving. If you need to make it further in advance, you can prepare the individual ingredients and store them separately until ready to assemble and serve.
The possibilities for main dish trifle combinations are endless! Some popular combinations include beef with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes, chicken with rice, beans, and salsa, and seafood with pasta and alfredo sauce. Get creative and use your favorite ingredients to make a unique and delicious dish.
While the concept of layering ingredients in a clear dish is similar, a main dish trifle recipe is not suitable for a dessert trifle. Main dish trifles typically use savory ingredients, while dessert trifles use sweet ingredients like cake, pudding, and fruit. Using a main dish trifle recipe for a dessert trifle may result in an unappetizing combination of flavors.
