Is it...(not) a sandwich?
I got them properly right last night: flour tortilla. It's been a goal - since Cinco de Mayo 2020 and last night, I think I got them if not quite - almost - perfect. Soft, pliable and just tasty. Nothing cruchy and cracked about them.
To fill them, left over chicken, chopped with some cumin and chilli jam. Because I didn't have sour cream, I added cottage cheese and a little tzatziki.
The quick salsa was corn, chopped peppers and tomato. With no coriander, I substituted finely chopped basil. Oh, and there was also freshly picked garden lettuce.
It always takes practise - and paying attention. Not sure about the latter last night, but there must have been enough! 🤣
And, in answer to the question, is it a sandwich? You tell me!
Post script: I am trying to participate in @traciyork's November #HiveBloPoMo. I emphasise trying because the last two months have been exactly that - trying. There have been times that I've just been too exhausted and uninspired to post, let alone write something profound. That shouldn't stop you - or anyone. Read about how to participate here.
I've made it to day 23!
Until next time, be well

If this post might seem familiar, it's because I'm doing two things:
- re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I am adding them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
- and "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts.
- From Wordpress, I use the Exxp Wordpress plugin. If this rocks your socks, click here or on on the image below to sign up.
