Dinner tonight
Gorditas
I made ground beef filling for my first attempt at Gorditas.
I remember my grandmother making them but haven’t had them in about ten years. I
made the dough using this recipe
One shredded russet potato, and diced bell pepper add really
good texture and make the ground beef filling really delicious. I seasoned the
meat with salt, pepper, garlic powder, red pepper flakes,
and a little taco sauce.
Toppings included my homemade corn salsa,
shredded lettuce
and cubed avocado
Served with a side of Spanish rice
Full and feeling nostalgic, thinking about the last time I
had Gorditas standing in my grandma’s kitchen. I think that having Mexican
heritage really eased the transition to my Gluten-free life. The only
thing I had to cut from our usual Mexican recipes was flour tortillas. Most
corn tortillas are gluten-free,
(always read the label, Guerrero white corn tortillas are clearly labeled Gluten-free)
Rice, beans, carne asada, chicken. A lot of the food from my childhood is naturally safe for me to eat, and that’s a good feeling.
