Greek potatoes, tzaiki sauce, bacon, jalapeno slices.

I was looking at a cucumber, and jalapeno and trying to figure out what dinner was going to be.

Then I remembered some tortillas and a mostly full pack of bacon. I always have potatoes, yogurt, dill and lemon juice on hand.

I prepped all the ingredients in the morning after pulling weeds. At dinner time it was just heating the tortillas and assembly.

Cost per person, $4.25

There was a translation issue and limon became lemon.

Despite Castellano being my first language, I'm a terribly-bad speaker. Yet if I understand correctly, we commonly say "limon verdes" for limes in Mexico & S. America (i.e. "green lemons"), and that's how that works.

This is just... apropos of nothing, but one time a GF and I were driving across the country, and we stopped in Amarillo. I really liked how the sound of such Texas towns rang in my ear until I got almost thumped upside the head for pronouncing them in Castellano (Spanish). (you know, with double-"L" sounding like "Y" and such) So I learned how to say "ahm-a-RIHL-oh" whilst driving through the Longhorn State. 😅

Don't mess with Texans, I guess was that lesson.
