The Sunday Dinner: Time for Tacos


Its been a bizarre couple of weeks as far as weather is concerned, but between the biblically-epic rain storms, the unseasonable cold, and the odd sunny afternoon or two, it appears as if Summer has finally come to stay. Today the mercury broke 90 for the first time this year, something that will must likely become a painfully regular occurrence as we move forward into May, but before you let the DC heat get under your skin why not escape the heat of the kitchen for a little outdoor cookin.


The Starter: Sausage Stuffed Peppers


The Main Course: Pork Tacos with Poblano and Tomatillo Salsa

And if you want to get a bit fancy with the Tomatillo Salsa, check out this alternate recipe for an interesting, grilled, take on the dish.

To wash it all down, skip wine for this meal and instead grab a sixer of Negro Modelo. It’s a dark, more complex cousin of Corona, that manages to pack in more flavor without sacrificing smoothness. You should be able to pick this refreshing beverage up at any respectable liquor store in the DC area.
