We're having friends over for dinner this weekend and are considering making a big Mexican feast. But our Mexican culinary knowledge doesn't go far beyond tacos, fajitas, and black bean soup. Do any of you have any good Mexican recipes to share?Chimmichanga's

Give 'em Grilled Cheese
I was a latecomer to the wonderful world of grilled cheese. When I was younger, I didn't eat much cheese, due to apparent insanity, and when I got a little older, I honestly thought that you couldn't make grilled cheese without using American cheese.
Sooooo not a fan of American cheese.
