M'tucci's Prep Kitchen

Introducing M’tucci’s Prep Kitchen: Chef-Created Meals to Finish At Home!  We will be offering a new box every week with a meal for up to four people.  It’ll include all necessary prep, a recipe card, and links for instructional videos of our chefs preparing the meal you will be making at home.

First up in this weekly offering is an Herb-Roasted Rack of Colorado Lamb, Mint Gastrique, Roasted Rosemary & Pecorino Saltwater Potatoes, and Sautéed Asparagus.  We’ll even throw in 4 Lemon Ricotta Cookies for $49.  Available for order and delivery now from all M’tucci’s Locations!  Quantities are limited, we only have 100, so when they are gone, they are gone! As of Noon Friday, there are only about 25 boxes left.

Call or go online to buy one now.

Above is a video to help you prepare the lamb at home (or to show you what you missed!)

The next Prep Kitchen meal will be announced Tuesday on Facebook and Instagram.

Albuquerque Journal Review today on M’tucci’s Twenty-Five - You can read it if you subscribe.

Regardless of your faith, this is an important time of year for Christians, Jews and Muslims, with the observance of Easter, Passover and Ramadan. We realize that you will not be able to gather and worship, nor take part in the ritual walks or pilgrimages popular in New Mexico, so we would like to share some photos from one my past trips to document the Easter week processions in Antigua, Guatemala.

From my blog post on my website:

I finally visited Antigua, Guatemala in 2017 during one of the best weeks of the entire year – Holy Week ( Semana Santa in Spanish). This UNESCO World Heritage site has been observing Easter with massive religious floats, hours-long processions and unique, hand-made carpets (alfombras) along each of the procession routes for centuries. You can read the entire post and see more photos by clicking here. I think you’ll agree that it is an impressive sight.

M’tucci’s wishes you a happy and healthy week ahead. See you on Friday, Ciao!
