Lily, tonight we are having another version of South of the Border. Locally made chorizo from locally grown pigs. Not very high in fat compared to commercial chorizo. Browned, seasoned with a little more cumin, black beans added. Served with homemade salsa and mixed salad with avacado. And corn tortillas.
