Recipe Introduction
Several decades ago we fell into conversation with a young Navajo chef in a run-down Holbrook ham-and-eggs place. On the ever-popular topic of food and preparing it, he confided with an air of super secrecy this old tribal remedy for an empty stomach. It's been a never-failing favorite through all these years. Good nourishment. Great flavor. Easy to fix.
