And we’re back!

From Mexico that is.  Sometimes you need a recharge and sometimes you just plain need to get out of the country and experience another culture’s food.  We needed and found both.

In the coming weeks we will be posting our version of several different tasty treats (all gluten free) that we enjoyed to the fullest in Mexico.  Empanandas made only with masa, pork in chile verde sauce, tamales and homemade tortillas to sop up the sauce, shrimp tostadas and sopes, little masa saucers filled with pork or beef in a red chile sauce.  But for now, we are catching up on our spinach, broccoli and tomato sauce cravings after two weeks of street food in Mexico, so these photos will have to suffice:

  4. Gorgeous photographs from your trip, Ginger. I keep thinking Dan and I need to dip down into Mexico now that we live in Southern California. Your post makes me want to go even more!

    • HI Sally! Thanks for the compliment, a new pro-like camera really helps with the photos. S Cal? Weren’t you near Seattle for a bit while commuting from Atlanta? I need to catch up on your posts! It really is a gluten free world for the most part in Mexico, except for churros and I think I have to attempt a GF version of those soon after seeing so many made on the streets. More photos will be posted to flickr soon…. stay tuned!

  5. Que rico! Those are great pics of some great dishes…
