1. Sounds good.

It would be a good parking lot/sharing meal too. I'd probably add some chopped serranos. I love garam masala.

Do you have the Kind Veggie Burritos cookbook? :hi:

2. No, but I wouldn't mind having it

Where can I get it?

3. It came out the year Jerry died, privately published I think

I'll pm you the contact info.

It has many classic parking lot concoctions from deadheads and some darn good recipes, especially involving rice.
