Thanks for the recipe


This is the dish I was looking for for my party 2 weeks ago. I guess I'll have to have another party!

Oh, and Paula that dish looks very creative.


I love to cook and actually met my wife here at a cooking class in Tijuana. I came up with my own recipe for Baja Fried Rice years ago. If you like Chinese Fried Rice you will love this:

BajaGringo's Fried Rice Recipe

It is one of my favorite dishes and goes great with a Cadillac Margarita...

;D

It's not hard and if you look at the recipe it leaves a lot of room for creativity, which is probably why I love it so much. I never make it the same way twice and it always comes out delicious.

Try it an let me know what you think as well if any of you wish to share your own twist to the recipe...

BajaGringo, I have a Margaritaville tape with 3 versions of Jimmy Buffett, one came on a promotional cd on a bottle of Jimmy Buffett Margaritaville Tequila, another is called LIVE, with a lost verse. Another version is done by Alan Jackson. This was given to me by a friend and I am just taking the information that is typed on it. Just thought it might be of interest beings you mentions the above with the recipe for Margarita's

After a few rounds of margaritas, it just doesn't seem right if that song doesn't get played. If you have been to my house you know that I am an audio nut and with 1 KW RMS pushing out of my gear we can make sure they hear it all the way down the peninsula...

;D

UPDATE: To Paula and the other nice person who gave me a recipe in u2u I won't mention your name unless you say it is ok then I will change this post to include your name. Continuing: I made both of your recipes for Mexican Rice and I am here to report back the verdict. I shared the results of both recipes with people I work with in my office and the overall consensus is that both recipes were delicious. The only complaint was that there were not enough of the rice and flour tortillas. I showed them a picture of the Mexican flag you made Paula and they wanted me to try my hand at that too. I told them. “What, are you crazy.” :lol:

You can do it EL! Just make the 3 rice recipes, then put them carefully in a rectangular dish. And be sure to present it with the green on the left:lol:

Elizabeth says that you can make the rice ahead of time and refrigerate or even freeze it until you're ready to use it,and then reheat it.

Jeez, Dennis, you really ask the tough questions!

It's a great dish for a buffet, then everyone is on the right (as in correct) side. At the beginnig of the thread I was called out-- rightly so-- for posting the photo upside down:tumble:


Edit: Another solution could be to make sure that 1/2 of thte people on the guest list are dislexic. Apologies to anyone who might be offended by this idea :dudette:

Oh, don't worry. They probably won't be able to read it anyway.
Another suggestion would be to arrange the rice [or is that rices] in concentric circles like a target, with the green on the outside. That way everything will be PC for everybody.

Dennis will you please lead us in the first chorus of Jesus Loves Me.

This is after we say a prayer before eating the rice.



Jesus loves me! This I know,
For the Bible tells me so.
Little ones to Him belong;
They are weak, but He is strong.

One type of Golden Cad is Vodka, Galliano, White Creme de Cocoa and Cream....Maybe substituting the Vodka with Tequila is what he means?
This inquiring drinker would like to know too.

My suggestion: Green bean(or even a mung bean sprout) for the snake., a thin piece of potato cut out and fried dark brown for the eagle, and well.. cactus pieces for the cactus.
