Classic at Home Mexican Food

Summer has passed and we are now in the season of fall. It is the moment where the temperature drops, the leaves change colors, and daylight time gets shorter. This is a wonderful time of year in my own personal opinion because there are these perfect days where there is sun and just enough warmth in the air to keep the soul happy.

When these days happen the grill gets fired up and classic at home Mexican food is made. The carne asada is prepared and creates the most amazing aroma and a flavor that makes the mouth water. Beans are made, a fresh salad, radishes, and of course tortillas. Portion sizes are small and each little section on the plate is eaten slowly to take in all the goodness. Most people think there should be rice in the mix of things, but this is too heavy and filled with calories that can not benefit anyone. Beer and wine is poured in excess and helps improve the experience.

Having friends and family around makes it extra special and everyone takes the time in slow motion. There are only a few more weeks until winter and the cold dreary days take over. I am thankful for having the opportunity to enjoy this and glad that something as special as this is possible.
