We just had a great dinner. I’m full, but not so full that I don’t feel like I can do anything. Just full enough.
We had burritos for dinner. Yum!
My husband and I love Mexican food, but for some reason we don’t eat it very often. It’s probably been a year since we last made burritos or tacos at home. Too long.
Considering how much we both like Mexican food I don’t know why we don’t eat it at least once a month. It’s fairly cheap to make too. At least the basic stuff like tacos and burritos anyway. LOL
When Chris and I lived in an apartment we used to go to this great Mexican restaurant regularly. I can’t remember the name of it right now, but it’s located just south west on Yonge street at Eglinton, here in Toronto.
There are a couple of really good Mexican restaurants on the Danforth as well. Very close to where we live now, but of course we haven’t been to either one in ages and likely won’t be going out to dine for a while since we just don’t have any money to spare on eating out.
I’m going to have to find some good recipes for Mexican food so that we can have it more often and of course have some variety.
I do have a great recipe for guacomole (If I can find it!). Several years ago we went to a Mexican restaurant downtown and we enjoyed their guacamole so much we talked the server into getting the recipe for us. He also got permission from the restaurant to sell us one of those big guacamole dishes that are made out of lava rock (I think).
If you know of a good website for Mexican recipes or if you have some favorite recipes of your own that you’d like to share please let me know.

I eat at least 3 burritos a week, minimum. San Francisco’s Mission District has no shortage of taquerias. I prefer veggie myself and there are many options within the vegetable category for example nopales – cactus, mushroom, grilled this and that, avocado, etc. I also like nachos but I prefer to make them myself. I make fresh salsa – the key is fresh cilantro, good tomatoes and garlic. Mexican food can be very healthy but it is often wayyy to heavy.

Mexican food is probably my most favorite type of food. We are fortunate here in Reno to have a few outstanding Mexican restaurants.

I used to be like you and be a big fan of mexican food but rarely ate it. However, I’ve slowly been teaching myself how to make a variety of the dishes and so, have quesadillas almost far to regularly now. They taste great and they’re quick and easy to make. Full of win :).
