The Huevos Rancheros That Weren’t
October 22, 2009
I was prepared to make Baked Huevos Rancheros tonight, but ditched at the last minute. (See all my ingredients on the counter? I was going to make guacamole too, which J. wound up doing when he got home.)
But, there’s no way the kids would have eaten it — probably not even the rice I was going to make on the side (rice is very hit or miss for my boys, mostly miss). Renee and I wound up being the only adults that would be eating, and it’s a big recipe: a dozen eggs, and a pound of cheese! After a rough afternoon with assorted tantrums, I didn’t have it in me to deal with the outcry from boys who want to eat yogurt for every meal. We ordered pizza instead, and dinner was peaceful. But now I’ve got to fit this meal in some other time.
