And yet, I am still in love with the whole sport party food thing. And what I came up with would fit the bill perfectly, even though it was inspired by a place far and away from New England or New York. Can you guess where? I'll give you a hint: this pyramid isn't in Mexico!
Yup, these rolled-up bundles of deliciousness are inspired by my all-time favourite meal at Walt Disney World in Orlando, the Wet Burritos found at Cantina de San Angel in EPCOT's Mexican pavillion. The menu description reads: "Soft Flour tortillas filled with beef, black refried beans, lettuce, tomato, cheese, sour cream and Adobo sauce". They are SO much more than that, and though these aren't exactly the same, they're similar enough to evoke memories of days gone by. I gave these a veggie twist with my aforementioned ground meat replacement TVP, and I like mine with a little extra kick, so I throw in a little chipotle chili powder along with the "hot" style chunky salsa. The result is ooey, gooey, crispy and all-around decadent. Just make sure to bring your knife and fork!
