The Mija Chronicles

Mexican food and culture, on both sides of the border

Is it weird that I’m suddenly obsessed with tacos?

February 13, 2009 by Lesley Tellez

I’ve been making them at home all the time lately, probably because produce is so abundant and my tiny kitchen suits meals made with one pan. These are spinach and oyster mushroom, with a sprinkling of tomato. Bought all of it at the tianguis.

You can’t really tell, but the tomatoes are a deep, dark red. [insert dreamy sigh]

Next step: Finding sriracha.

    sriracha be goood! i have seen bottles of it at palacio in their asian food section, the asian/speciality market called mercado san juan (metro: salto de agua), chinatown, and the japanese market mikasa (in roma on san luis potosi). costs over double here for a small size, so i just usually bring it from the states so i can have the bigger bottle. 🙂

    My mouth waters every time I read your blog entries about all the food you’re eating.
