Wooh! Hot tamales!
Speaking of which...Maybe I'll make tamales tonight. Last night was a veggie dinner with asparagus soup, artichoke hearts with Mexican cheese and bread crumbs, flatbread with a garlicky Baba Ganoush. The guys ate it and said that they liked everything, but I heard them rummaging around in the fridge in the middle of the night. I'd better make something more substantial tonight.
Tamales really are not that hard to make if you are just making a few. It just takes time to cook the meat and whip up the dough. I already have some left over pinto beans and some rice in the fridge. A porch salad will round things out.
