Lentil salad, it gets brown lentils, diced garden cucumbers, red onions, tomatoes, jalapeño, fresh parsley and mango, spiced with nutmeg. Easy to make and filling and something unique to bring to work potlucks lol It’s always a hit when I bring it

Oooh, that sounds so good, I’m gonna try that 🤤
fyi: you can buy some variation of the apple/tamarind version at any decent mexican grocer and there’s also a candy version of it with only the apple, the tamarind, chili & lime. it’s usually in lollipop form and most people unaccustomed to it will eat it like a lollipop; but you’re meant to bite and chew it to get all of the flavors out.
Haha I was one of those unaccustomed; my husband’s buddy gave him some of those for us and I was utterly baffled 😅
it used to make me wince to see people doing that and biting into the corn husk along with a tamale; it most cases it was their first time and i was disappointed at not getting to vicariously live through their experience of trying something delicious for the first time.
in my older age i’ve come to appreciate how incredible common it is despite the 2 cultures proximity for centuries and both intermarrying to the tune of millions people sufficient enough to out number spain and all but 4 latin american countries.
