My dad's b-day was on Monday so we had the fam over for dinner. All of them (Dad, Barb, Reed, Kaitlin, Preston, Paige) plus our family of six in our little house. It was crowded, but fun! Unfortunately, I wasn't thinking and didn't get any pics of the party or of the dinner. This is the prep work though:
Grandma Livvy taught Nora and I how to make Fry Bread for Navajo Tacos. Taco bout good! I love recipes that are passed down. It makes the food taste richer and yummier.
Dang! I wish I had pics of the meal. Oooh, I wish you all could taste them. Cindy made delicioso beans for Sunday dinner so we ate those on top of the Fry Bread with all the usual fixins. We had a little left over so the next morning I made huevos rancheros. Navajo Tacos and huevos rancheros? Can't get much more New Mexican than that! I want more!
I want New Mexican food! ALL of it sounds soooo good. Dang! I need to know how to make fry bread too...
ReplyDeleteYummo! I always did fry bread measuring everything out, but Michelle's Navajo friend told her to just use self-rising flour and enough warm water to make dough, then knead it. So much easier. Love Grandma Livvy's helper.
ReplyDeleteIt was very delicious and thanks again! We need to do more family things especially since you'll be leaving soon. :(
ReplyDeletei was missing New Mexico yesterday. Now I can miss it today. thanks. I haven't had a navajo taco forever.
ReplyDeleteYum! I haven't had any of Gram's frybread in a while! I just might have to make that for dinner! That Nora is so dang cute! Grandma is so good at letting the little ones help- I love her! I love New Mexico too- green chili on everything- the rest of the country is really missing out!
