Marinated Mushrooms - A Mexican Inspired Side The recipe I used as reference calls these Mexican Style Mushrooms, but its a Southwest style cookbook. I know a lot of Southwest cooking is inspired by Mexican cuisine, but for the sake of not knowing for sure, we will just call these Marinated…
Cauliflower Tacos- The New Meat Option My first attempt at making cauliflower tacos was a mixed bag of both success and failure. Some good, some bad. It was actually a fairly easy process, but parts of it will require some experimentation to get right. Photo by: https://unsplash.com/@simxa Cauliflower Ninja School Dropout…
Lunch at Los Amigos for Matt's Birthday! We recently discovered a Mexican restaurant in town, Los Amigos. Not new, but new to us. I'm so glad a neighbor convinced us to check it out one day. They are a family owned business with two locations in Southern California: Lake Elsinore and Oceanside.…
