The ingenious trick in this recipe is
that the whole thing is made in one pan - without the unnecessary mess
and extra dishwashing. The vegetables are fried together with the rest
of the ingredients in the same pan. Besides the ease of preparation,
this dish is healthy, nourishing, special and combines ingredients
usually found in Mexican cuisine - corn, beans, avocados, and wonderful
spices.
