Welcome to this week's email from Simply Good!

Greetings from vibrant Mexico City! We jumped on a free weekend to explore this fun city. The people are warm and welcoming, the city has so much lush green space, and it is a food lover’s paradise. We took a cooking class and learned so much about the culinary history and why corn, chiles, tomatoes, and squash are so integral to the food here. We made 10 incredible salsas, and paired each with homemade tortillas, vegetables and meats. Amazing. We will definitely be leaving here inspired!

This Week's Featured Meal: Mojo Pork

Our meal this week features mojo pork which pairs perfectly with a take on one of the new salsas we learned. The pork shoulder is marinated in citrus, lots of garlic, cumin and fresh herbs. It is then slow cooked until it becomes melt in your mouth tender. The meal is combined with coconut rice and a spiced black bean then finished with creamy salsa highlighting serrano chiles, roasted garlic, avocado and lime. We are offering two salads this week, a soup, and two types of chicken salad for easy weekday or weekend lunches or dinners.

Please have your order in by Monday at noon for Wednesday afternoon delivery.
