That looks delicious! I will have to try that recipe. I'm sure the food down there is amazing. Thanks for sharing.
I have to admit the fry bread looks kinda scary! (I'm definitely not a cook- what is instant milk?) Have you had this? If you say it's good, we might try it :) We pretty much eat the same dinners week after week...so it might be time to be a little adventurous!!
YUMMY! I had one at the Prov 4th of July carnival/street fair thing and it was as delish as any Navajo Taco I've ever had. In fact, I'm putting this stuff on my grocery list it's that good :)
