Tijuana street tacos contain no kernels of corn. They’re on corn tortillas, but that’s the extent of it.

Which is why corn is what separates texmex from San Diego style. Literally the only corn in San Diego mex food is the masa flour. So you get it in tortillas and tamales but You never see kernels of corn anywhere. You won’t find it in the salsa or any other form. This may have changed in the 20 years since I left but if you wanted street corn you had to go to Tijuana because you weren’t going to find it in San Diego.
I don’t know how this happened. It’s a culinary oddity. And I don’t know what it looks like between Texas and San Diego. Everyone knows about the green versus red wars of New Mexico, but I don’t know what their corn status is.
I grew up in San Diego. Most definitely not Mexican food that people in Texas would recognize as Texmex but, according to many, would fit your description. The key difference between Texas and San Diego Mexican food is that Texas uses corn and San Diego avoids it except for corn tortillas.
Can Americans even send mail out of the country anymore? I can’t keep track of what still works.
Make reservations and pay in advance and I can have it ready when you get here. How much would it cost you to get to Lesser Carolina?
“turkey tortilla casserole” I browned some ground turkey, homemade taco seasoning, cumin. Added red bell pepper, turkey stock and tomato paste and boiled until the liquid was just a little more than needed to cost the pan and then layered it all in high quality flour tortillas with some pepper jack on the top later fold. Baked until the chess melted.
I think Texmex needs some form of corn. But it’s definitely a lasagna. One of the few acceptable types of casserole.

I’ve made more than my share of yogurt cheese. It is kinda amazing. But most importantly it doesn’t make the dish taste like cream cheese. Everything with cream cheese tastes like cream cheese. Which is great on a bagel but not in my pasta.

I had a third of a block of smoked mix that was open and needed to get used up. I’ve already got several more blocks ready to get smoked when the weather is right.
It was broiled for 5.
Looks interesting. My brain kept trying to change that sour cream to cream cheese because every recipe on the internet these days is ruined with cream cheese. But sour cream is good.
I have used canning lids and I have purpose built 4 inch rings too. But those are another thing to clean.
