These look good. Love Mexican food and I suppose the years I lived in Arizona made me a real Arizona- Mex lover, and my favorite, Shredded Beef Chimichangas topped with red sauce, green sauce, sour cream and guacamole, beans and rice on the side please!
Mmm! I love Mexican food. This all looks so yummy to me. Thanks for sharing!
