What's for supper tonight?

Chicken Flautas from a local Mexican place. Good stuff.

 

what's a flauta, boxer?

 

Another snausage, fried egg and cheese sammich.
Artery clogger, sure, but damned tasty.

 

Since it's 85 right now, it's going to be cold beer, steaks and a watching great sunset on the Pacific while consuming. What a grand one tonight -- because it's fast-foodsville roadtime tomorrow.

 

hot wings.

 

Chili. I've put it off for a week. I'm finally making it.

 

Chicken marinated in Italian dressing and salad.

 

I think after we get back from our Thanksgiving trip, I'll make a seven layer salad for lunches. Someone mentioned it on the salad thread and it made me want one.

 

Johnsonville Sweet Italian Sausage
Four-cheese pasta side
Steamed broccoli

Good eating.

 

A flauta is a type of fried taco-like item. Take a corn tortilla, put something in it, usually beef or chicken, although refried beans work well, then roll it into a cylinder instead of folding it. You leave the ends open though...it's similar to a mini-burrito with a corn tortilla although since corn tortillas are less pliable you can't close one end.

Then deep-fry it. You keep them horizontal so the filling doesnt leak. Drain and serve. Not a big favorite of mine since there are other Mexican treats that taste just as good but with less calories. Still, I can't deny the fact that they are tasty. They're often served with a side of guacamole for dipping...typicall entree portion is about five or six flautas with some guac and/or picante with the usual beans/rice/lettuce/tomato.

Flauta is Spanish for flute.

 

York mint and a Pepsi.

 

Sushi from the grocery store and a ginger soda over here.
