Personal Notes:
This is part of an entire meal that I call "My Favorite Mexican Dinner" it is the Black Beans, Cilantro Lime Rice and Shrimp Fajitas. My Favorite Mexican Dinner actually includes Tequila Sangria. All of these are in this cookbook. I made this entire meal one summer day on Lake Fenton and my family and friends loved it.
