Updates & Reminders

• If items are found around the community, they will be directed to RPCC’s lost and found
• Please remember to pick up after yourselves and do not leave trash outside around the community
• Once again, please lock your apartment doors and carry your keys on you! The easiest way to save yourself a lockout and to make sure you and your roommates are the only ones entering your apartments.
• Ready for your flu shot? Get your free vaccine at one of the upcoming clinics by showing your Cornell ID.

This week’s treat is one of my weekend breakfast go-tos and kicks off Hispanic Heritage month. There are many reiterations of huevos rancheros, with some adding refried beans, avocados, and even shredded meat. This one is a very simple and quick recipe. If you don’t have corn tortillas in your fridge and need an even quicker recipe, you can substitute corn tortillas for tortilla chips.

Both queso fresco and cotija cheese can be found at Wegmans, as well as the Mexican crema. Cotija is my go-to cheese as it’s saltier than queso fresco. Cotija cheese is usually the cheese you see on elotes, another Mexican staple. If you’ve never had Mexican crema, it’s similar to sour cream, but is lightly salted and a thinner constituency that allows you to easily drizzle on top of tacos, enchiladas, and more. Enjoy!
