Iguana Tacos/Burritos
For people who aren’t accustomed to cooking iguana, it is suggested that an easier route may be to
make iguana tacos or burritos.
Ingredients:
Iguana meat (cooked and cut into small pieces)
Onion
Chives
Avocado
Lime
Chili-lime seasoning
Curry or taco seasoning
Sour cream
Salsa
Flour tortillas
Directions:
1. Wash the iguana meat thoroughly after removing the skin, organs and entrails, so that just
the meat and cartilage remain.
2. Put the iguana meat in boiling water. Add onions to the water for flavor.
Let cook for at least an hour or longer, until tender.
3. Remove the tender meat from the cartilage. Cut into small pieces, separating the white and
dark meats, then season with whichever type of seasoning you enjoy in tacos/burritos.
4. Season the white meat with chili-lime seasoning, curry or any other type of taco-type spice.
5. Chop onions and chives, avocado, limes and other desired toppings.
6. Mix the onions and chives in with the meat. Then, sauté the mixture on medium-high heat
until it is soft.
7. Place the meat in the center of a flour tortilla with avoca- do, sour cream, salsa and other
toppings.
8. Wrap and enjoy.

The tractor is ill to start, a great heaving and jerking,
The gear lever jars through palm and bone,
But I saw in a film the Russian women working
On the land they had made their own,
And so, and so,
Said the farm woman:
And I bruise easy.

Never tell the men, they will only laugh and say
What use would a woman be!
But I read the war news through, every day;
It means my honour to me,
Making the crops to grow.
And so, and so,
Said the farm woman:
But I bruise easy.

The Farm Woman: 1942

Why the blue bruises high up on your thigh,
On your right breast and both knees?
Did you get them in the hay in a sweet smother of cries,
Did he tease you and at last please,
With all he had to show?
Oh no, oh no,
Said the farm woman:
But I bruise easy.

Why the scratched hand, was it too sharp a grip,
Buckle or badge or maybe nail,
From one coming quick from camp or ship,
Kissing as hard as hail
That pits deep the soft snow?
Oh no, oh no,
Said the farm woman:
But I bruise easy.

There was nothing, my sorrow, nothing that need be hidden,
But the heavy dung fork slipped in my hand,
I fell against the half-filled cart at the midden;
We were going out to the land.
Nobody had to know.
And so, and so,
Said the farm woman:
For I bruise easy.
