chorizo and egg tacos - two ways. one a regular open-faced taco, with jack cheese, and the other had a fried tortilla with a little cheese inside but also on the outside, fried to crispy golden deliciousness. Chorizo cooked with tons of scallions and jalapeno. BF made corn salad and sliced up a tomato to go with.
Late night Chicken Korma. I marinated the chicken in curry and spices before GRILLING it (not sauteeing as most recipes suggest) and finishing in the creamy korma sauce. Side of [keto-friendly for my BF ] cauliflower rice…and [very much not keto] naan.
Rick bayless’ Casserole style zucchini tamal. Perfect for times of zucchini overload. I make it in two dishes. The recipe calls for chopped ham which I wouldn’t eat but know DH will, so 2 steaming pots (with all the stuff in the kitchen, the pantry, the basements &the garage, I could not find 2 dishes that fit in my biggest pot w steamer. Grrr. )
Not as pretty as a tamale but almost as good!
Sides were Israeli couscous and sauteed green beans, onions, and some of my patio tomatoes that I’m surprisingly still harvesting from the container garden on my desk. (And there are about 12-15 more still working on getting red!)
Having trouble with cooking inspiration and getting back into the swing of things
@Elsieb’s tamale casserole reminded me I still have most of a bag of masa harina, but I didn’t have the energy for the casserole tonight, so pupusas were made and consumed.
Fennel “curtido” with Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and refried beans.
Hit the spot. Made extra dough for another meal or two as well.
