My boyfriend E and one of our friends are both from New Mexico, and they were both raving about how awesome green chilies are. E's mom went up to Portland a while back and got a big can of green chilies, and he gave them to our friend and she made us dinner last week with them. ^_^ I'd never had an authentic New Mexican dinner before, and it was really tasty.
I don't really have any plans for tonight though. We're broke still (other than food stamps, which renew for the month today), so no going out and partying. I could whine about how you should be able to buy tequilia with food stamps, but really I don't think that's a good idea lol.
Where'd she get the green chile? I have difficulty finding the good stuff up here. Chile/salsa (Safeway Southwest is surprisingly tasty, and not as salty as typical salsas so it's works better as an ingredient compared to a garnish), refried beans, flour tortillas and a bit of cheese makes for a great quick and easy lunch.
