Christmas Dinner - When in Rome do as the Romans do.

We had such a fabulous time preparing a delicious and authentic Mexican meal for Christmas dinner.  Peter ordered tamales from a nearby Mexican restaurant and then we set about making sopapillas, guacamole, Mexican rice and more.  Sopapillas are rectangles of fried dough that form puffed little pockets that you fill with a savory mix of beef and green salsa.  You can also drizzle them with honey and powdered sugar for dessert.   
 Dinner was absolutely delicious!
