Topic: RE: Que Paso????
Thanks for the welcome Linda. Okay, I am going to show you how much I really love the Mexican, Latino food, and how Gringa I really am....DON'T YOU GUYS LAUGH!!!!
So you make your menudo just like you normally do, seasoning's etc...
But........instead of tripe....use stew meat, I get the chuck roast and cut it up really small...... REALLY SMALL... has the same taste, but different texture with the meat....
So I don't feel like I am missing out.... Hubby thought I lost my mind, but he actually likes it....
Yummmmm...So maybe I have a new Bariatric Recipe....wooohooo.

Hey Rachael: Thanks for making me feel welcome... Tamales...... ummmm I went to San Antonio 2 weekends ago and stayed with friends... Hubby's are in a Christian Motorcycle group and we made tamales...... I actually did pretty good... I could only eat one at a time.... and only like 3-4 hours apart... You know how everyone eats on them all day long. They all laughed cause, I was full on 1, and they were eating them 6 at a time..... Oh well..... Gosh they were good though...
Thanks again.
Much love and loosing.

Welcome to the board Vickie
I can so relate to the Barbacoa Taco, ssssooooo good...
I'll usually have 1 taco and that is on Sundays at MOMs house... so its more like a treat...I haven't gotten sick on it...I just eat it very slowly and chew chew chew..
LOL...the food I miss the most is Menudo I'll take a teaspoon of the soup just to get the flavor but I really miss it the most..

Hi Vickie,
I've been married to a New Zealander for 12 years...but I was a Raquel Chavez long before I became Rachel Quigley. So yes indeed, I can totally relate to the food. My sisters and I made tamales last week. I prepared the red chili chicken and pork...and yep...had to make myself a big ol burrito while stuffing the husks. Had a whole wheat tortilla though...ugggghhh...Wish me well on christmas eve when the smell of freshly steamed tamales are calling my name!

Topic: Que Paso????
Hey everyone. I just found this board. I am not hispanic or latino but should have been, and I am married to a hispanic man for 12 years.
Does that count???
I speak some spanish, and love the hispanic Latino culture. I really would like to make friends with those of you on this board.
It is hard sometimes for people to relate to the foods issues, that you and I sometimes have. Like eating a Barbacoa taco tonight and really wanting it so bad, and then feeling like crap when you have eaten your 1/2 because you know you should not have eaten the double tortillas.. Or wanting to eat the rice, but thank god, I knew better.
I am a support group leader here in Austin Texas and hope that maybe you guys will
allow me to hang out with you. Hope to hear from someone...
