Sometimes that sounds like my supper. I'm bushed from a long day, and a simple supper is what our family has. Monday's are usually family day. We have a big supper with dessert.

I ate a lot of grits when I lived down South. My hillbilly wife from Kentucky won't touch 'em. I like mine with butter and pepper.
Tonight we had black beans and rice and some chicken. I ate mine with diced tomatoes, onions and cilantro rolled up in flour tortillas with a healthy splash of Cholula Sauce (the BEST hot sauce east of the Rockies).
I'm looking forward to Sunday diner tomorrow. It's supposed to be really nice out so I'm thinking we might BBQ. Were starting the day with a hike up Mt. Kearsarge, then church, then I have to go to work for a few hours to put decking down on the deck we framed in today. Figured a nice way to end the day would be with a BBQ lamb kabob.

Bignhfamily, with a meal like that you have to be of Spanish descent. I read your meal and crave black beans and it is almost 1am. I prefer Marie Sharps Belize sauce over Cholula though. It is hot, hot, hot, but good, good, good. The white label Marie's is the best....
My wife cooks white rice, black beans topped with onions and olive oil and red wine vinegar with fillete steak marinated in garlic, parsley and finely chopped onions.

LOL - nope no Spanish here. Scottish, Irish, German, English. I'm a mutt
My dad's a Texan (who grew up in Panama and Venezuela) and we acquired a taste for spicy yet ever so tasty foods from him.
I lived in San Diego, El Paso and all over the south. So over the years I've learned and enjoyed many different foods. Baja, creole, tex mex, etc.
I can't gut hamburger tacos any more but that carne asada your wife makes sounds delicious!
I'd like to try that Marie's hot sauce too!

(It was uncomfortably warm today for the first time this year and very humid. Last week it was cold and rainy. I turned the boiler off three days ago. The last few years the weather has slammed from one extreme to the other overnight, with turning off the heat and putting the window shakers in on the same day.)
Bar-B-Que (homemade) sandwiches on toasted rolls, topped with tangy coleslaw and a few drops of hot sauce.
Amish potato salad (yellow, no egg, sweet)
Baked beans
Potato chips
Pepsi-cola
Canned peaches on vanilla ice cream for desert
