Notes: A good guacamole salad and fried tortilla chips are a great addition. A margarita before dinner will prepare the taste buds and create a receptive mindset!!
Maria was our wonderful cook in Cuernavaca, Mexico. We had rented a house there for several summers with a group of families, and she taught me so much about Mexican cooking ... especially soups (see "Cream Soups -- Why Are There So Many?" under the Soups section to learn more about Maria).
