Probably about 20 years ago in Dublin my then boyfriend and I made Puerco Pibil from the Robert Rodriguez movie “Once upon a time in Mexico” and never got around to making it again as you need some special ingredients (banana leaves, annato seeds, habañero chillies) that were hard to come by where we were living after we moved away from Ireland. The other day my now husband and I watched the movie with our son and decided it was time to eat this dish again. I did the shopping and my husband cooked. This turned out so well, it was well worth all the planning and effort. The meat had turned so soft! And the spices were absolutely mouth watering. 🤤
On request, I made some fresh pico de gallo for my daughter for her birthday dinner. She won’t allow me to share photos of her because teenagers, so here’s a photo of my pico instead.

I love Mexican food (or rather, our local interpretation of it) but between the tortillas, the beans, and the rice it is off-limits.
Today went to Qdoba - a fast-food Mexican place - and I was able to get the vibe without the carbs.
I ordered a bowl - no shell - with the seasoned ground beef, lettuce, tomato salsa, cheese, sour cream, and guac. Then I splurged on some corn salsa*. That was very filling and darned good!
(Tonight I had a leg quarter.)
It can be done, friends!
My daily carb limit is 50g total. More or less. What kind of carbs those are (as well as maintaining my IF/eating window) is most important in controlling my inflammation and pain levels - I don't eat for weight loss.
The problem with drawing the little gremlin eating enchiladas, today I had to prepare some for lunch. Well, they’re actually enfrijoladas, same thing but instead of green salsa they’re covered in spicy bean salsa 😋

This weekend we celebrate our Mexican Independence and of course the streets are full of “antojitos mexicanos”
Do you have a favorite mexican food? For me, will be forever tacos al pastor 🌮 so I made the recipe and not to brag but they came out pretty yummy. 😋🤤
Had dinner at a Mexican restaurant in San Dimas this evening. On the wall next to our table was a poster of the front page of The San Francisco Chronicle from April 1916.
Far below the fold and the sordid tales of Pancho Villa’s battles, this article had the table in stitches. It is best read out loud for maximum effect.
I don't really bother with #Chipotle or #TacoBell when I can avoid it along with other fast food. There's an amazing #TacoTruck that just is cheaper and SO MUCH BETTER than Chipotle. And they also have Lengua! I love cow tongue! #food#dinner#Mexican#mexicanfood
