I regularly bake sweet potatoes then add plain yogurt, salted peanuts, feta, nutritional yeast, and drown it in hot sauce. The dish has no name nor should it ever see the light of day. What goblin mode meals do you guys eat?

    On the area of Mexico that I grew up in, every morning (or every other morning) you would buy fresh corn tortillas for the family. We’d make a taco out of anything.

    There is a macaroni salad (with lettuce, peas, carrots, etc.) served at weddings and special events people sometimes pair it with mole sauce and add it to a taco (tortilla) - the main dish is mole with chicken and rice and beans, but people in my region would not think of a Mac and cheese taco as too strange.

    My mom also used to make a canned tuna mix (mayo, tomato, onion, lime, salt and pepper) that we would pair with a tortilla and it slaps. I’ve feed this to people from the US and they came back for a second and third taco.

    We also would pair a rolled up tortilla with soups (chicken, beef, fish) and used it to push the veggies and meat into a spoon while taking a bite of the part that got souped up.

    Corn goes surprisingly well with both sweet/savory (mole) and salty (meats, etc). I’ve never thought of pairing it with PB, but I can see how it might work. If you were referring to flour tortillas, those tend to have a slightly sweet profile, so it seems it could work.
