my mother had made, for as long as i can remember, delicious food. while she was here last week, i asked her for some ideas for dinners for michael and myself. i asked her to remind me of what she made when we were little and she did, with ease.
when she mentioned the vermicelli burrito, i was taken back to a better time and place. :) it is a burrito made with hamburger meat, vermicelli (which is little noodles), rotel and onions. you saute the onions and then add in the hamburger meat. you season it deliciously and add in the vermicelli to toast a bit. after a few minutes, add in your rotel. cover the pan and let the stuff simmer for about 15 minutes. put into a toasty tortilla with some cheese and hot sauce and presto! vermicelli burritos!
they're very simple and yummy with a tiny bit of spice. i tried my hand at them tonight. as simple as the steps were, i still called my mom three times. i just wanted to get it right.
did i get it right, you're wondering?
uh...some what. i don't think they're as good as my mom made them, but still pretty stinkin good. who can ever be exactly like their mom anyway.
thanks mom!
