so, tonight will be 2 stir fries. the first will be chicken ternderloins, tofu, bell peppers, celery, carrots, eggplant, baby bok choy, mung bean sprouts, green grape tomatoes, ginger, garlic, lemongrass paste, soy sauce, hoisin, and chicken stock.
the second will be the same except add thai bird and hungarian hot wax chilis, and hot sesame oil. dw and the boy only like a little heat. i like to breathe fire.

.... Yeah boy!
I have a chunk of leftover pot roast and some mashed taters. Wife is out of town, so I am going to experiment with a kind of hash from these.... If I remember the damn camera and it turns out edible, I'll take a picture...

Sass!!! Those Bacon Sliders look amazing!!! I'll take a dozen please!
Thanks Keltin.
There is a local that has these on the menu now, being that sliders are all the rage.
Jim's uses bacon, roma tomato, and a garlic herb mayo on smaller/rounder rolls.
I used little hawaiian rolls and a regular small vine ripe tomato, with mayo-added garlic powder and some summer savory.. close to Jim's version, and pretty damn good.

You'll likee.. just make sure you buy the sweet little hawaiian rolls, mmmmmSass, that looks delicious! I'm gonna try these!
.. purely by accident because they were all I had, but I'll use them every single time I make these now.
No cooking tonight - we're meeting some friends for dinner at our favorite taco restaurant, Tacos Itzel. I'll try to remember to take my camera so that I can show you the phenomenal (and cheap!) food we get there.
Sass, it looks like you have hit on a perfect combo: the slight sweetness of the soft bread, the crunchy, salty bacon, the tangy garlic/herb mayo, the freshness of the tomato...it doesn't get any better than this!!

Oh man, I should think about this a bit to come up with a snappy answer. My first option was "Armenians."
My second option - I don't have a second option.
In fact, BT, there ARE some Americans working in Mexican restaurants here. Most of the expats in our community are, like us, retirado, or an even better Mexican term, jubilado. But there are substantial numbers of Americans and Canadians who are not yet fortunate enough to have retirement income, and who have fallen in love with Mexico. My daughter is one of them...and they work at anything they can find in order to stay here. At the risk of hijacking this thread, let me say that it is a challenge. But the restaurant we are going to tonight, like most, is family-run and staffed. More later, with pics.
