That is where I started, Dimitri. I had even posted that site as
a great place for Mexican recipes. One of the things I forgot to
mention, and is somewhat important, is that I do not eat spicy food,
like chiles, and I would really like to be able to eat what I bring.
I'll blame that oversight on the fact that it was so late when I posted,
but sadly, I still have not slept, so this post may not be any more
effective.

All of the Mexican dishes with vegetables that I have found seem
to either have Chile and/or meat, or just be salads. I like the tortas
de papa I saw in another post, and may go with that, since the salsa can
be put on the side. Also the stuffed squash looked like a possibility.
