Latino Junk Food

[dalthauser]

My diet has gone to hell in a handbasket these past days.  I guess I'm eating myself into feeling better, but I know I'm going to pay later.  At least I'm still literally dragging myself onto the step to get some exercise every day.  I went to Walmart grocery looking for some junk food. 

It's hard to find junk food that isn't sweet AND doesn't have meat in it.  Leave it to me though.......


The Yuca Bites rocked - the plantains were too greasy (maybe if I'd baked them instead of deep fried them....) The Pupusas were not worth the calories.  They were kind of like runny bean burrito filling inside a biscuit.
I ate all this at once - though I didn't actually finish it all..... I threw out the extra (I wouldn't subject my worms or my compost bin to all that cholesterol).

they rock, dipped into ranch dressing (if you aren't vegan) I can even get them at Costco and certainly Trader Joes.

Oh Yeahhh.... they have them at HEB. The broccoli ones are good too!

I must admit suprise that your local Walmart had the pupusas!

A co-worker put me on to this ethnic recipe web site. Thought you might want to take a gander at it. The recipe I have pulled up on it is for home made pupusa that is sooooo easy to make.

I'll check that out. I'm all about cooking in the kitchen usually - especially since it's cheaper to do it that way :)
