The Knutz Family In Mexico

The Knutz's are becoming authentic Mexican cooks. There are TONS of fresh vegetables and fruits here! I am making salsa and refried beans from scratch almost daily. No canned salsa in this country!! I have searched! I buy onions, avocados, peppers of all varieties, jalapenos, tomatoes and cilantro in large quantities. You know how you see Mexicans in your home town loading up on these items at Winco? Well, that's me! Carmen will be coming over next week to teach me how to make maize tortillas.

BTW~ the fruit here is incredible. I never really knew how a real banana tasted until now. Avocado trees surround this valley.
