Dana – Thank you for your comments. I always look forward to reading them. Please forgive my delayed response. I just found this comment in my unread pile. 🙁
I may have to revisit the corn tortilla. We never really liked them before, but we were steaming, not toasting over the open flame like we do now. They’ve got to be good. Hell, I love tortilla chips and most of them are corn…

David actually has called me that once
..lol! I’d love to go to Mexico, but Italy is higher on the list. Perhaps you could twist my arm… 😉

In reply to Cheryl "Cheffie Cooks" Wiser. Absolutely makes sense to me! It was just something I never gave much thought to for you both-Duh? One must eat for goodness sake...Homemade food is best always. I never have much leftovers so I just cook and bake all the time! HA! My hubby comes home to eat lunch almost every day too. Smart fellow I married. Keep on-keepin" on Deb! Your Florida Bud, Cheryl

OK Debbie it really is time you got to Mexico… I am now going to call you ‘the Blonde Mexican’!
My plan is for you to put away the cash you’re saving by using leftovers and not buying lunch. This would be at least $50. per week, multiplied by 52 weeks a year, which works out to be $2,600. There’s your holiday Debbie!!!
Thinking of hiring a house in Mexico for a few weeks at the end of my U.S.A trip, I’m sure there’d be a spare bed!? x

Genius way to use those leftovers girl.
Great tips in the notes too, I could never figure out the difference between flour and corn tortillas until now 😀

Looks and sounds delicious! I just love poblanos and am always looking for ways to use them more!

Reasons I never leave work to go out for lunch:
#1 Expensive
#2 Gets Redundant
#3 I loose a really good parking spot by the entry door of the building.
Besides a lot of times the leftovers are even better the next day! 🙂

Gee I never thought about your having to eat at lunch time like the rest of us? As in bring something delicious from home. Eating out bores me and it can get rather expensive too. Yep, Mexican fare is a good option! Winner-Winner.

In reply to Duncan. Thanks Duncan! The flavors of the marinade are so good! You should definitely give it a try. I don't think I have ever met a quesadilla I didn't like. My Meatless Monday Bean & Cheese quesadilla has been a popular posting on Pinterest. Mexican food is just good.

Those look pretty awesome! We do quesadillas with cheese and refried beans fairly often, but the carne asada would be a great way to add variety to our meal plan.
