Late Dinner Post

So last night I made stir-fry! And might I say it was delicious! Its was so colorful, well mostly green lol

I mixed in:
●Bell Peppers
●Mushrooms
●Onion
●Carrots
●Bean Spouts
●Minced Garlic
●Green Beans
●Snow Peas

I made beef stir-fry actually. I cooked the beef about 4 to 5 minutes, then sat aside. Cooked the veggies about 4 minutes as well then blended both. I used extra virgin olive oil of course. I did buy the premade sauce,  but only used a bit to coat the mixture. After some research, I think I'll actually try to make my own sauce next time! I let it cook a about another 5 minutes and done!  I'm still watching what I eat so I didnt even bother to make rice and I didn't cook the veggies all the way either to not cook out all the nutrition. It was so filling and flavorful!  My hubby loved it!

Thanks for reading :)

Home Cooked Meal ○Tinga○

Personally i think my mom makes the best tinga. But of course everyone thinks their moms cooking is the best. But my mom doesn't make it or we don't go over as often as my hubby would like. So today my hubby begged for me to take on the challenge of preparing this awesomely delicious spicy meal.

What is tinga?  Well it's a chipotle based Mexican dish that is pretty spicy yet, delicious. It's usually made with chicken but we love the beef.

I've wanted to make it for a long time but, I can't bare to even attempt a family recipe, not be successful and feel crappy for it. So without inviting anyone over, I thought I'd give it a try,  atleast for my hardworking hubby! My family can be a bit judgmental when something just doesn't taste right. So that's why I've been hesitant on cooking family recipes, even just regular Mexican food lol. Well I tried it, and we loved it. It's surprisingly simple and not that hard! Next time I make it I'll have to post the recipe and more pics :)
