Fall is here and firing up our taste buds and getting up our inner soul and
spirits ready for the winter months.
Just in time for the
chile, menudo
& the tamale season that's just around the corner. It's also that time of
the year to start planning your tamale gatherings with your family and
friends. But wait....before you start racing out the door to buy all your
ingredients. I'd like you to try this recipe that will get you in the mood
for tamales and
only takes 30 minutes or less to prepare. This is one of my husband
Michael's favorite dish that he'll never say no to.
