A Tamale Recipe Gone and Reborn

Our family comes from a diverse Hispanic/Native American heritage. I know, I know, I was lucky enough to eat tacos every day! (lol) No really, we did not eat tacos every day, but the happy memories I am going to mention revolve around a recipe that has become quite a tradition. Especially now for me and my daughters. The Mexican tamale. I do have to admit, growing up this delicious meat stuffed pie was not a favorite of mine when I was younger. I do have to warn you though this is not a random recipe, but a secret one.
