What's In Your Burrito?

[CleverNickName]

My go-to is a chicken burrito, no rice, with black beans, pico, guac, and the spiciest salsa they have (which is almost never spicy enough here in Portland OR.)

But sometimes I'm in the mood for a vegetarian burrito, and that's when I get scrambled eggs, cheese, green chilis, onions, and pico-- basically an omelet wrapped in a tortilla. I'm not vegetarian, I just don't eat meat with every meal.

Portland might be afraid of spicy salsa, but they're not scared of experimentation. I've had (and loved) some really wild fusion burritos in this town. Korean-Mexican, Thai-Mex, sushi-rritos, they have it all here.

I'm very envious of people who can still eat very spicy food, my body's ability to handle it has dropped p consistently across my 30s. If I eat a habanero now I'm going to have a miserable 12 hours.

Wrong coast!

That’s too bad. I’m afraid I have little choice these days. If it don’t burn on the way out I’m not tasting it going in.

I recently started Zepbound and spicy food (along with greasy food) is my kryptonite...

I'd prefer steak and pinto beans, but I certainly wouldn't turn my nose up at that.

Interesting, I prefer pinto with chicken and pork. Black beans with my carne asada.

I've the choice, I wouldn't eat black beans with anything, but I will tolerate them if I must.
