Traditional New Mexican Foods You Must Try Bev Desler

Staples on New Mexico menus include beef and chicken enchiladas, tamales, Carne adovada (red chile marinated pork), burritos, huevos rancheros, and Chiles Rellenos (green chiles stuffed with cheese then deeply fried). Locals often enjoy an over-easy egg placed on top of their enchiladas.
The flavors of New Mexico come alive when used in their signature dishes. From their sweet apples to hot chilies, their zesty and colorful farm crops contribute a great deal to their dishes, from chili cheeseburgers to enchiladas. Even their desserts sometimes include spicy chilies, making them unique and surprisingly tasty.
