  • Taco Head by Viola Canales
    Taco Head by Viola Canales Mama used to pack two bean tacos for my school lunch each day. Every morning she'd get up at five to make a fresh batch of flour masa. She'd roll out and cook one tortilla at a time until she had a big stack of them, nice and hot, and then she'd fill each with beans that she'd fried in bacon grease and flavored with chopped onion in her huge cast-iron skillet. And each morning I would sit at the kitchen table and say, "Mama, can I please have some lunch money too, or a sandwich instead?" But the reply was always the same: "Why, mi’ja? You already have these delicious bean tacos to eat." It wasn't that the tacos weren't good; it was that some kids called all Mexican Americans beaners, so the last thing I needed was to stand out like a big stupid sign. All the other kids either bought their lunch at the cafeteria or took nice white sandwiches. I started going to the very end of the cafeteria, to turn my back and gobble up my tacos. Then I started eating each taco by first putting it in a bag. It would take me all of five minutes to eat, and then I'd go outside to the playground. I was always the first one there, often the only one for quite a while. But I didn't mind, except on really cold days, when I wished I were still inside. On one cold day, I so dreaded going outside that I started eating my second taco rather slowly.

  • Beef and Cheese Chimichanga
    Beef and Cheese Chimichanga My husband loves this beef chimichanga recipe! I often double the recipe and freeze the chimichangas individually to take out as needed. I serve them with shredded lettuce and sour cream. —Schelby Thompson, Camden Wyoming, Delaware Beef Chimichangas filled with a ground beef/refried bean mixture seasoned with chili powder, cumin, and oregano, rolled up and fried until crispy, and covered with cheese and jalapeno tomato sauce tastes so much better than restaurant chimichangas. They are sure to be a family favorite. In fact, this is the recipe my son requests more than any other. I don’t make these Beef Chimichangas often since they are fried, but every now and then I’ll make them when we are craving some Mexican food, but it’s not a convenient night to go out to eat. WHAT ARE CHIMICHANGAS? If you’re wondering how exactly this magical Mexican burrito comes together, stick around and let’s talk about how to make the absolute best homemade Beef Chimichangas. Ingredients 1 pound ground beef 1 can (16 ounces) refried beans 1/2 cup finely chopped onion 3 cans (8 ounces each) tomato sauce, divided 2 teaspoons chili powder 1 teaspoon minced garlic 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 12 flour tortillas (10 inches), warmed. 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies. 1 can (4 ounces) chopped jalapeno peppers. Oil for deep-fat frying. 1-1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese. Directions In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in the beans, onion, 1/2 cup tomato sauce, chili powder, garlic and cumin.

Contact: [email protected] Laura Duclos and Sshiva Tejas Capstone Text Introduction: It’s no secret that Americans like to dine out. Hamburgers have long been touted as the signature food of the United States, but how much longer will America's heart be held in a pair of sesame seed buns? While the 6,278 Taco Bell locations in the U.S. pale in comparison of McDonald’s 14,027 restaurants, the growing number of Mexican-American food chains shows something stirring in the mouths of those living in the United States. Overall, the fast-food restaurant industry was valued at about $798 billion in 2017, according to a report from Statista. This year, 66 percent of Americans visited a McDonald’s for their fast-food fix. Right behind the classic burger chain, Taco Bell was also the choice of 48 percent of respondents, according to Cint Insight Exchange. The shift from burgers and fries to tacos and burritos shows a countrywide movement for food that embraces what was once considered foreign cuisine.
