She also recommends Burhop's at Plaza del Lago in Wilmette; they are doing curbside pick up.
Good to know. We used to pass by Burhop's all the time. It's still only about 15 mins away, might have to check it out.

I agree!

Agreed, most of us probably have all the different herbs and spices in our kitchen already. I've invented my own secret (because I don't measure ) mix that works great for chicken or beef tacos, and it's actually the same mix I use to make my chili (which is much closer to the traditional than the typical tomato soup style we usually see). Last night I used it for veggie tacos. Granted, there was maybe a 1/4 cup of chicken broth in it as well, but my wife said she would swear it wasn't all vegetables. Anyway, if you start with chili powder and cumin and go from there, it's kind of hard to go too wrong.
