Whenever my coworkers ask where I'd equivalent to go to eat for luncheon, some 9 nowadays out of 10 my say is a way-too-enthusiastic suffrage for Mexican. Yeah, it's form of the part humour. This food blogger could perfectly lively on Mexican content.
But beingness that we use crystallize out in the 'burbs, genuine Mexican substance can be a slight brutal to rise by. Thankfully the closest anaesthetic Tex-Mex strand happens to hit whatsoever of the human chips and salsa in townspeople, positive one of my all-time deary dishes - Parmesan-Crusted Seafood Quesadillas.
Yes, I countenance, the premier instant I saw them on the docket, I did a double-take. Parmesan-Crusted? With sun-dried tomatoes? At a Mexican restaurant?!? YES.

Cured seafood is matched with firm avocado, sun-dried tomatoes, lots of fusible cheeseflower, and then of class, sandwiched between parmesan-crusted tortillas. Ridiculously reputable.
So now after heptad geezerhood of order them at the restaurant, the bulb suddenly went off and I definite to try making them at place. Why I waited so tall? I now get no design. These were a finished, Parmesan-y success. Do yourself a soft elevate, and straighten few today. :)
