Not a Recipe

Post by Yaklash »

I'm putting this here because it is food related. I don't know about you guys, but I have a weakness for tacos, especially good, soft tacos. Breakfast, lunch or dinner, I love me some tacos. I tend to cook most of my morning and evening meals at home and the options for good flour tortillas were just not measuring up to those you get at restaurants and tacos trucks.

The cure to my ills.... Guerrero's "Ready to Cook Tortillas." They come in a package and look a lot like regular store-bought tortillas, but they are raw. They are pre-flattened and it takes 90 seconds to cook them in a non-stick skillet turning every 30 seconds. You can only do one at a time unless you have a big griddle, but man they taste almost as good as hand made.

Where the hell have these things been all of my life or are they new?

I've been buying the same type tortilla from my local HEB bakery for several years. I agree they are the best you can drag home from the store. Two of them held my chorizo and eggs this morning and another two will perform the same duty tomorrow. :)

I do the same, every morning. This morning it was fire roasted poblanos (roasted a pound and a half over the weekend), refried beans, a little spicy venison/pork pan sausage and some cotija "Tajo" cheese.

For time's sake, I used canned refried beans to "butter" my tortillas.

I would be by for breakfast in the morning, but the 400 mile drive might interfere with me getting my honest 8 in at work. 8) :D
