Hope You Enjoy this amazing Mexican Meal. Try this with a Negra Modello and enjoy!
I first tried a similar version of this meal at a friends house and have made it at least once a month since then. It makes the perfect spring/summer time meal. So I suggest pick a perfect sunny day, start this meal early, pick a nice spot out in the yard, and enjoy some delicious food and chase it down with a few cold ones.
