My favorite Mexican dish are enchiladas!. They are relatively simple to make, and even if you're missing some ingredients, you can mix and match various meats and veggies fairly easily!. This also allows you to add your own personal touches and flair to the dish while preserving its authenticity!. Here's a good recipe - http://www!.elise!.com/recipes/archives/00!.!.!.
What I like about enchiladas is that they cover all four major food groups (bread = tortilla, cheese = dairy, veggies, and whatever meat you decide to use!. also, they have an excellent mix of different flavors with the various components of the meal, not to mention a great combination of different textures!. So I would highly recommend making some enchiladas!. Cheap, easy to make, and delicious!Www@FoodAQ@Com
