I agree Lauren! Busy life means dinner has to be quick!
These look great because 1) I am obsessed with all Mexican food 2) I love food that doesn’t require me to clean up five different pots and bowls afterwards!

Me too Julie on both the obsession and the cleaning nightmare. I’ll confess that with my last pregnancy I refused
to eat any Mexican. There are several foods that I no longer eat because of a bad experience. I didn’t want that
to happen with my beloved Mexican food. Haha!
These not only look amazing but looking like something I can actually make! Living in Italy it’s hard for me to find ingredients but I will def be able to find these!
