    Mexican-Style Steamed Mussels, I always keep an eye out for mussels to go on sale at the local fish counter, just so I can make this yummy recipe It makes for a great quick light meal Be warned, though: four pounds of well-prepared mussels can disappear much faster than you think Also a great recipe to use with clams, if that’s what you prefer Prep time does not include time to clean the shellfish , Excellent I omitted the tomato, but loved the flavors from the jalapeno and cilantro , EXCELLENT! Nice and easy to make with a burst of flavor Enjoyed with a loaf of homemade french bread and a glass of wine, not to mention great company! – lovenest
