A new, improved Tortilla coming soon!

0 · Apr 30, 2010 · 2 Comments

It’s been a few weeks since I’ve posted and I wanted to write you all a little note about why. Soon, The Other Side of The Tortilla will relaunch with a better, more interactive design! I’m moving hosting in an effort to better serve all of you and to provide some cool new features that I cannot integrate on my current platform. I promise it will keep the same, clean style that so many of you have written me saying you love so much.

I’ve been working on a redesign since the beginning of April, and it should be ready to be implemented sometime in the next few weeks. Thanks so much for all your patience and support – I can’t wait to show you the new site! I hope you’ll keep checking back. In the meantime, you can still access all my old posts here. Once the redesign takes effect, all the old posts will be imported to the new site so you’ll still be able to search and find some of your favorite recipes and stories already posted here.

Hasta pronto,
Maura

  • I didn’t take a bite... YOU took a bite! (OK, I totally did.) 🤷🏻‍♀️🍩 But in my defense, these margarita-glazed doughnuts are the real deal. Like having a cocktail 🍹 without the buzz. Not suitable for the kids because there’s booze in the glaze, but then who am I to assume you’d want to share them anyway? 🍩🍹🍩🍹🍩🍹🍩 Recipe is up on the blog at theothersideofthetortilla.com. 👩🏻‍💻 What kind of doughnuts should I make next?! ⠀

  • Another Día de Los Reyes Magos 🤴🏽🤴🏿🤴🏻🐎🐘🐪 and another year my piece of rosca has the baby! 🤷🏻‍♀️ I love to start the year with this tradition, even when it means I end up responsible for the tamales. ❤️⠀

Did you know there are as many as 2,000 kinds of Mexican pan dulce? 😱 My husband and I started writing ✍🏼 a guide to common types of Mexican sweet bread awhile back, and then realized I’d probably never publish it on my blog if I waited until I tried and photographed hundreds more. 😂🤷🏻‍♀️ So this is me, Type A person who likes to have ALL the details and photos complete and perfect, telling you that I published an incomplete guide on 💁🏻‍♀️ theothersideofthetortilla.com with more than 50 kinds of pan dulce, descriptions and some photos, and I plan to add more over time. I hope you’ll check it out and tell me in the comments below what other types of pan dulce you think I should add to the list! ❤️🥐⠀

  • I saw a nutritionist 🤓🍎 for the first time in my adult life about a month ago while I was in Mexico City 🇲🇽. While I wasn’t eating poorly, I wasn’t eating enough of the right things at the right times of day. 🍎 🥑🥦 Turns out I’m a total carbaholic (which I already knew). 🤷🏻‍♀️🥐🥖🍞 Carbs in moderation at breakfast and up until my afternoon snack time are OK for me, but detrimental to my progress if I eat them in the evening. But when I’m getting that proper balance, I’m not hungry and don’t crave carbs and sugar at night like I used to. 💪🏼⠀
⠀
The hardest part for me is surprisingly not the changes I’ve had to make in my diet, though. 💁🏻‍♀️ It’s the prep discipline to make sure I pack snacks and lunch every day so I don’t make bad choices or skip meals because I’m busy. 👩🏻‍💻 My husband helps me out so I can succeed. He even wakes up early to make me breakfast some days of the week! 🍳 Making smart choices (like swapping weekend pancakes 🥞 for Greek yogurt and berries with granola) isn’t always easy, but all this is to say: Invest in yourself because it’s worth it. It’s never too late to learn to take better care of yourself. And your body will thank you. ⠀
⠀
P.S. A note about the cost 💵 and why I chose to do this in MX rather than at home in LA: It was cheaper and less hassle to do this in MX, paying out of pocket, than seeing a nutritionist WITH insurance in the US. My 2-hour consult for a body composition test and a personalized nutrition plan from a UCLA-educated nutritionist cost me about $85 USD. I can do follow-up appointments via Skype 💻 with her for a very small fee in comparison to what my insurance would be billed for follow-ups at home plus my out-of-pocket cost, and I can ask my nutritionist questions in between (at no cost) via her WhatsApp.📱It bothers me that proper nutrition counseling is harder and more expensive to access in the US. 😒 Happy to share more about my own plan if you’d like!
