What makes for better mind wandering as I wind along the bayou flanked roads in south Louisiana than food? My mind landed on Gumbo. It's a staple of any self-respecting Louisianan's diet. Not that I'm self-respecting, as I did own a carbon fiber bike at one point, but you get the point.

My in-laws live part of the year in Santa Fe NM. They had recently returned to this area, and brought some incredible Hatch chilies with them. I have been cooking with them quite a bit lately. Well the thought of gumbo and hatch chili merged to spawn the thought of Mexican Gumbo. This morning I decided to throw some things together to make a Mexican gumbo.
