Dinner leftovers: Friends gave us summer squash so we simmered it with a sauce of sauteed white onion, garlic, and bacon crumbles, plus blended tomato with chipotles in adobo. Seasoned with cumin, nutmeg, Mexican oregano, and cilantro. Feta cheese at the table.

 

Would have been better with chorizo, but so would most things.  :smile:

Zucchini con Queso y Salsa Roja from Asada

The zuke guts get sautéed with onion and garlic then mixed with panko and an egg before filling the par-boiled scooped-out shells. They are supposed to be cooked on a grill but these just went into the CSO on a pizza screen so they got cooked from both sides. The salsa is simple, tangy and fresh tasting. 

I must add that it

That's a great idea to riff on - possibilities are endless; bacon, cheese, more cheese...

Fish tacos:

Got some masa harina flour from Masienda and wanted to try making tortillas but didn't have anything planned to do with them so I made a quick kimchi slaw, grilled the last of the grenadier filets from my last fish share, cut up some avocado and it was breakfast!

My tortilla skills need work but they tasted nice and corny!

Cool you got some Macienda product. How did it compare to the ubiquitous masa harina like Maseca?

I ordered mine directly from them as they had a free shipping offer last week but Whole Foods is carrying Masienda masa harina, quite widely I think, as a friend in the Chicago area was able to find it there. My WF store usually has their yellow and white, at least, sometimes the blue. 
It's been a while since I had any Maseca but this is definitely more flavorful. Also, it seemed to hydrate very evenly, no little dry patches.

Corn tortillas, scrambled eggs, Salsa Almendrada (roasted almonds, cascabel & de arbol chiles, garlic, olive oil, vinegar), Pickled Red Onions (the recipe includes orange juice and is very good),  Frijoles Negros de la Olla con Nopalitos, topped with a little queso fresco.

All from recipes in Asada except the queso fresco recipe is from Nopalito and there is no recipe for the eggs.

Blueberry season and Moe loves blueberries with or without sliced bananas in milk for breakfast

 

Blueberries in milk was one of my favorite in-season childhood breakfasts. I still do that occasionally.
