Good Morning!
Hope this finds you well, friends. I am typing while watching my kitties running around, up and down, chasing one another. These two could really wreck the house, holy moly.
I prepared a Mexican food inspired dinner for my boys, it is rice and chicken with tomato as the main flavoring. The dish is known as Arroz con pollo. While I prepared? Not sure if I can really call it as that? ? I did not have many ingredients that seem to be in many arroz con pollo recipes. So yeah, inspired instead, but my gosh, did my boys clean their plates. Oh yes they did. They loved it ?
