The first dish I made this week is something iconic of the city: fish tacos. Instead of fish, I used a tofu "fish" recipe from Shmooed Food cut into small cubes. Totally delicious, let me tell you. Pair that with salsa, avocado, shredded lettuce all on a fat tortilla, and you've got heaven.
The next dish is another San Diego classic that you might not have heard of out side SoCal. It's called carne asada fries. Think nachos on top of fries. Mine had salsa, fresh guac, and spicy seitan bits. I used butternut squash in place of the traditional potato, creating a colorful plate.
