Yummy


Sounds good. Thank you.


This sounds tasty... I always thought Fideo was Spanish!


Reminds me of going to my friend's houses and having this delicious Mexican comfort food. My mom only cooked Cuban.


My home town in Western Nebraska had several home-style mexican restaurants which served fideo, which I've missed so much and have been constantly looking for a recipe to match that flavor...and this is it (less the shredded chicken)! Thank you so much.
