They Pull Me Back In
I'm always just on the verge of not ordering from Fresh Direct any more (the packaging alone could get me kicked out of the food co-op), then I try something I really like that I can't get anywhere else.
Unless I go to Rosa Mexicano, in this instance. FD has just introduced a line of heat-and-eat and ready-to-cook dishes, and I signed up for the chicken thighs with Yucatan spices. I broiled the heck out of these (because I'm paranoid about undercooked poultry and 2-year-olds) and they were still moist. Not spicy-hot, but richly spiced with that hint of (is it sweetness?) cinnamon (cloves? allspice?). We ate them with rice last night, then I shredded the remainder for tacos tonight. I broiled some halved grape tomatoes that I had tossed with oil, salt and pepper, shredded some cheese and lettuce, and warmed some flour tortillas. Not authentic, but very much the kind of meal that makes all three of us happy.
