It's GREEN CHILE Time!

Mmmmmm, 30 lbs of goodness!

I make this twice a year, and today was #1.

This is from an old recipe from a franchise my mom and dad had, in Willcox, from 1972-1992, called EL TACO.

Anyone out there know of it??? It was a precursor to Taco Bell, but bad management from the higher ups killed it....so sad...

Can you believe when we opened in August of 1972, they had just had a price increase, and, tacos and bean burriots were up, from 19¢ to 22¢! I got paid $1.00 an hour and then, got bumped up to $1.25! My little brothers never let me forget that they only made $1!!!!! Good times! Good food. The only claim to fame I know of, is Hank Williams, Jr., came in and gave my dad his autograph for me. Willcox is just off 1-10 in SE Arizona. I stopped working, when I got married in August of 1975....seems like a lifetime ago...

Thanks for your visit!
