$25 Challenge: Can't cook? No problem! The Wild West Mini Market has plenty of premade options for $25 and under
The Wild West Mini Market is a bad cook's paradise.
If you’re anything like me, you may crave the comforting, warm flavors of a home-cooked meal, but don’t have the kitchen skills to whip up a steaming bowl of pozole.
I tried to recreate Spanish rice once; let’s just say I now know I can never stray from the simpleness of Minute Rice.
But as I walked down the aisles of the Wild West Mini Market at 4889 W. Ajo Hwy and saw all the tubs of refried beans and bags of freshly made red chile tamales, I almost shed a tear: I had finally found a way to eat authentic, delicious Mexican food for dinner without burning down my kitchen.
Now this mini market is no Circle K or 7-11, right when you walk in you’re met with a refrigerator full of vibrant produce and homemade salsa. Depending on the size you grab, you can have fresh guacamole or pico de gallo for either $5.89 or $8.99. NEVER underestimate the power of handcrafted guacamole, your tacos will taste a million times better and your guests will be so happy to see you’re not using a generic store brand.
What really caught my eye was sitting right next to the hot dogs: a beautiful tray filled with four plump bacon-wrapped chiles. Like I’ve said a million times before, toritos are one of my favorite things in this universe so I didn’t even have to think; these were coming home with me.
You'll have to read the full story to see what I thought of their toritos!
