Bummer, right?!? The good news is… I have Mexican for you. Yes.
Actually, my plan is Mexican all week. Ah huh, a whole week of Mexican food. From now until New Years. It is going to be just grand.
I figured since my family does Mexican every New Year’s Eve I might as well do it up right this year. So we are going big time Mexican, and we are starting things off with breakfast Chimichangas. All I have to say about them is that they were a hit. There is some chorizo and eggs, some cilantro, avocado crema and a hefty sprinkle of Cajita. My family – now fifteen strong – all loved them. Oh, and if you are wondering, I wrapped, fried and topped seventeen chimichangas. Surprisingly it wasn’t all that hard, but I mean still, that is a lot of Chimichangas.
Ok, so I fried these, but to be honest, I am not actually sure it was worth it. I mean they were freaking awesome and perfectly crisp, but I think the oven is a good option too. Definitely much easier and obviously healthier, but it is totally up to you. I included both ways in the recipe. I’m keeping things short and sweet this week. My cousins are only in town for a week or so and I am not sure when I will get to see everyone all together next. Promise to share all the crazy Gerard Christmas photos + drama soon! Oh, and be on the look out for some photos of the barn soon too!
Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!
