#13 MINE!!! LOL here it is! "Gorditas" the true and original!!! LOL my mom's recipe but let me tell you it was meant to be! While everybody
was going crazy grabbing the chicken. I calmly walked to the abandoned pantry haha! so forgotten but, hiding treasures! LOL not really I was up
there Wednesday and had already planned to do either crepes or wontons but when I saw the package for 'masa Harina' aka. Maseca full and new
I felt obliged to use it! Furthermore on the day of the lab there they where! Cilantro, a can of chiles,tomato,onion and YES Avocado!!! only one!
So as you see it was meant to BE! And Alas here they are the Wonderful soft gorditas with melted cheese filling topped with a fancy 'pico de gallo'
with sour cream and a black olive for contrast, all in a bed of lettuce chiffonade with granishes.

#15 (Mitchell's Work of Art!!! :) )

#16

Sweet ending!!! LOL not really...well maybe. So I was done with the project 17 minutes early SO not to make feel rushed those still not finished I went back and rescued the poor sad raspberries! The secret ingredient!!! LOL no seriously this was due to the fact that there was NO dessert other than Katies scones, since the majority of projects where meats and other. So I need some dessert! LOL and you thought it was for the class! LOL
[[[What is it? WELL!!!!!! something my mom does for a light dessert, see it like a triffle with out bread or cream,yogurt,condensed milk + raspberries, hazelnuts and delicious Ghirardelli chocolate!!! MMMM! Creamy and light (right!...well not on calories!)]]]
