About

If I’m going to be poor, I’d rather be poor here. Sure, I work a ton, but for something. There, you work and there’s nothing. There are churches here, and every Monday and Wednesday, they give you food. Beans, milk, bread. In Mexico, they don’t give you anything.

Method

Cook beans. Add chiles.
Char chiles and tomatillos. Serve with tortillas.
Cut bread. Add banana
