I needed to introduce you point blank with the title. No beating around the bush here.
It’s no secret one of my favorite cuisines is Mexican. I’m not talking that healthy Mexican crap people try and portray as their favorites. I’m talking Mexican chips, guacamole, full fat cheese dip…the whole 9 yards. I probably have it at least once a week.
So my WIAW is dedicated how good unhealthy Mexican is.
Guacamole dip:
This was probably 2000 calories of guacamole…and I ate the entire thing. It was so good (but I guess you could say not something I strive to eat every meal).
And then I had enchiladas and rice-because apparently when you go out to eat you have to get a meal too.
I think Mexican food and pancakes will be the only food I ever blog about again. (and beer)
Question for you: What is your favorite cuisine?
Mexican is the BEST. I love guacamole, enchiladas, huevos rancheros, and especially tequila!
I won’t lie, I’ve eaten guacamole straight with a spoon before. We love all the same foods.
I could eat Mexican three meals a day. I’ve decided guac is calorie free, and that makes it much easier.
Gauc and peanut butter right? Isn’t that standard of calorie free foods?
I love Mexican food. My favorites would have to be the classic Nachos and queso, anything from Chipotle, and taquitos. I love taquitos!
Hollie, you are killing me with this Mexican food–nom, nom, nom! I went to happy hour with some friends last night and got a $2 margarita, but no chips and guac.
I’m envious of your big bowl of guacamole. I always want to make my own but the avocados around these parts just suck most of the time. They’re either too hard or too brown. Anywho, my favorite cuisine is seafood. The fresh kind from the beach!
Mexican is great for me because i love love love salt, especially salty tortilla chips. I aleays have chips and salsa after a marathon. Always. But, Thai might be my absolute favorite on an everyday basis.
That looks really tasty but you know you’ll blog about pancakes again soon
. Cause pancakes are the best!
I blog bout the cakes every Monday! Except last Monday because I mischeduled and it came out on Tuesday LOL.
I love guac so the fact that you ate all of that makes me very happy and want guac at 9 in the morning
I like mexican food but Italian is still my number 1 choice!
I love Mexican food, I could eat that and sushi on rotation and never get sick of it! Guacamole is the best part about it!
What is your favorite Mexican place in Chesapeake? Have you tried El Toro Loco in Great Bridge? if not we should go next date!
No I haven’t. I call that our next place to hang!
Looks so yummy!!
It’s a toss up between Mexican & Italian. Both are calorie laden and DELICIOUS. I went out for Mexican with my mom last week at this little hole in the wall diner in a small town. It was hands down the best Mexican I’ve ever had-which helped me get over the guilt of eating so many calories nice and quick
Calorie laden seems to always be the most delish! LOL. I used to eat a lot of pasta but similar to having too many PB and J’s, I grew tired of it. Darn carb loading for swimming!
mexican is definitely my favorite by far. i know it’s not healthy and i don’t try to make it healthy – if i’m going to a mexican restaurant i’m getting margs, i’m getting queso dip, i’m probs ordering guac and then i’m having enchiladas or tamales. tamales are my absolute favorite. masa and lard? yum.
Amen. If you made it healthy, it would take away from how awesome it is.
same with mac and cheese. i want to punch anyone in the face who posts a “light” mac n cheese recipe. if i wanted it lightened up i wouldn’t eat macaroni and cheese i’d have a damn salad.
So I just had my first tamale last year and I AM HOOKED. Those babies are my favorite food now! Shredded beef is just epic in a burrito. Yeah, I would happily move to Mexico for the food
Mexican food is the best thing in the world and most addictive ever. I could eat a massive burrito daily.
Mexican food, beer, and pancakes….at least you got all the essential covered! There is no shame in eating a whole bowl of guacamole, that stuff is addicting! Come to Southern California and I assure you that all you will want is eat is unhealthy Mexican food. That shiz is everywhere!
I am with you, mexican food is the shit. refried beans amazing. salsa and chips. drool. Addicted over here
I am in love with Mexican food- bring on the avocado and beans and shredded chicken and salsa but hold the cheese [you don't wanna be around me after that]
I made a batch of “salsacakes’ [IDK? salsa style pancakes] for dinner last night… YUM!
Yeah I’ve made something similar to that…but I would much rather have a sweet pancake and go out for Mexican versus trying to blend the two LOL.
I love that you said you like the UNHEALTHY stuff. Not the fake crap. There’s nothing wrong with indulging once in awhile. I think it’s healthier to do that than becoming obessive (I look at myself as a prime example of that). If Mexican food and pancakes are the only things you eat for the rest of you life, I’d say you’re really living life to the fullest
I indulge in Mexican once a week. I should have #mexaweek or something LOL. No actually,too many things to keep up with.
Omg Guacamole is the best thing ever! Well not better than world peace but still an awesome food. Mexican is right up there for me but I can’t pick a favorite cuisine, too hard!
omg this makes me miss guacamole haha
Umm LOVE mexican food! I don’t necessarily eat too much of the unhealthy stuff (being allergic to dairy definitely helps that) but I have no problem destroying a portion or five of chips and salsa/guac. You only live once right?
I am telling you…LURVE guacamole. I always say “it’s good fat” because it is. And who cares? AMIRITE?
Favorite cuisine? Do cookies count? Because I think they should.
YES. I would eat it if it was bad fat too. Doesn’t matter to me!
What about Mexican… pancakes?! The idea could either be ridiculously brilliant or out-of-this-world disgusting… it could go either way. But I have to agree that Mexican food is amazing. Give me chips, cheese, salsa, and guac, and I’m a super happy camper.
I’ve done corn cakes topped with guac before which is amazing!
I can totally relate with you on eating way too much Mexican. It’s definitely one of my top favorite cuisines. At least guacamole has healthy avocados though!
The way I eat Guac is probably negating any sort of healthy fats…and I’m okay with that!
Mmmmm mexican food. I am one to eat salsa straight from the jar so I’m definitely down with this obsession. And corn cakes with guac + greekyogurt/sour cream with salsa are diviiinnnne.
Mexican is the best, I also love Thai, and good old Chinese delivery. Drool.
Mmmm! I love me some guac!
Mmmm Mexican is some seriously good food.
YEAH it is!
I love mexican food so much! I went out for it with my friends and got cheese and onion enchiladas with cheese sauce on them.. Oh, and I ate all the tortilla chips. Yupp, so worth it.
hahahha I actually also ate a VAT of guac today. It’s slowly becoming one of my favorite foods lol
Pick favorites? Oh goodness.
I suppose PB&J would be mine….and yes the health merits are debatable some things are just….mentallly healthy. Like…eating our weight in guac and refried and corn tortillas. Ahhhhhhmen.
LOL so I saw your tweet about agreeing in the comments. I promise I am not just disagreeing for the sake of being different…I fucking HATE mexican food. I will legit go to a mexican restaurant and do nothing but drink Corona Lite and eat tortilla chips because I hate it so much hahaha. Italian though….now THAT is some shit I crave. rotini bolognese and garlic bread FTW!
LOL, you crack me up. Because you dropped the f bomb, this becomes my favorite comment ever.
Oh man, Mexican!!! I so wish they had a good mexican restaurant here, but unfortunately they have one & it sucks. I mean the chips & salsa aren’t even that great ;(
ahh Mexican is my fav too and I have been craving it for quite some time now.. I might have to go out and get some!
