We had a properly late dinner as a result of our delicious afternoon cheese plate and the fact that it takes a more than a minute to put together taco fixin's from scratch (or at least mostly from scratch). The meat portion of the tacos was predominantly lamb with a little bit of beef thrown in for good measure. I must admit that while I did add a little salt into the meat, most of the flavor work was done by Rick Bayless's chipotle lime skillet packet. I was also unable to find already ripe avocados, so I bought the grocery store's relatively fresh guacamole instead.
The pico de gallo, however, was entirely of my own making. I seeded the tomatoes and chopped them. Then chopped red onion and cilantro to add into the mix before adding lime juice, a smidge of olive oil and a tad pinch of salt. Let that marinate for a minute and you get magic man. Magic, man.
I also cooked rice and heated up some black beans.
Oh yes and also some fajita like peppers and onions for good measure.
I'd say a pretty satisfying eating experience. The leftovers of which made quite a number of additional meals for me in the days that would follow.
