I am Italian and grew up eating lots and lots of pasta. I didn’t really start eating Mexican food other than (gasp!!) Taco Bell until I was a little older and realized how simple and full of flavor Mexican cooking could be. Since I’ve discovered my love of fresh Mexican food, I have to admit we eat at least one Mexican inspired meal every week. A meal like this can always be made ahead (say like the day before) and quickly popped into the oven before your meal.
