Street Foods



I have been coveting the food truck phenomenon for awhile, and it seems that it has been perfected first outside of the US.  But we've caught on, and now I am seeing it everywhere.  Or at least reading about it :(  Austin and San Antonio have caught on and hopefully we will see it in the DFW area as well.  Not your standard hotdogs and roasted peanuts either!  I have also been hearing the foodie buzz for smoked paprika.  So the marriage of the two was a great opportunity to venture out into unchartered food territory.  The trip was fantastic!

The recipe was Hot Smoked Paprika Pork with Mango Salsa I was so excited because I saw that they had been selling flat bread at Walmart in the bakery section, traditionally called Naan, which is part of the Indian cuisine.  Of course when I went to get it, it wasn't there!  So the substitute was small corn tortillas that were double wrapped because singly they tend to crumble when stuffed.  This is a very versatile recipes as I imagine it would be good with ground pork or chicken as well and done on the stovetop.

I will be trying out different recipes from this venue, as they can be quick and pretty healthy.  As with most things, adjustments can be made to lower the calories, as most of the bang comes in the exquisite combination of spice.
