Oh, I love New Mexico Mexican food.

I lived in NM for about 10 years, and the food is one of the things I miss most about NM. You cannot find good New Mexican food here in Houston.
Green sauce refers to sauce made with green chile. In restaurants, the servers will ask if you want
"red or green" with your meal. Red sauce is sauce made with red chile. I, personally, love the green chile and the hotter, the better! When we visit my mom in NM, I eat green chile for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Last year, we even brought back a cooler full of frozen green chile. There's nothing like the smell of chile roasting!
