I´m Mexican but my boyfriend is from the US, we live in Mexico now, and this channel is helping me a lot to find new ways to incorporate American-style recipes into my Mexican cuisine.

Glad to hear that! This dish has taken a couple of different trips across the Pacific! 😃

I love that you skipped the ketchup and made it your own version.

Thanks Dino! I love ketchup on fries, but yeah, would rather use fresh tomatoes when cooking! 🍅

Happy anniversary. Were those tomatoes from your garden? You’ve come a long way since you first posted a year ago.

Thanks for watching since day 1! These tomatoes are store bought, I have not kept up with the garden so much after the move because the new balcony doesn't allow so much direct light or rainfall like at my old place.
