NO, not together!
What do you do when you get tired of the shredded squid you bought in chinatown? It's getting too much for your teeth and hard to chew and stuck between your teeth and all of that.
What you do is leave the bag open accidentally and forget about it for a few weeks. It gets crispy, crackly and a totally different texture!
Secondly, a question. I have a craving for flour tortillas with chocolate in the middle. What would be IDEAL would be bananas PB and chocolate fried in tortilla. But I have no banana or flour tortilla.
How would cor tortillas taste with that? I can't decide if I think it would work or not.
FAKE EDIT:
I just made brownies.

I created my own twist to chicken soup one evening and, as usual, it was a last minute thing where I just threw whatever was in the back of the pantry together. My room mate says it is the best soup ever.
It starts with:
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite size chunks
2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 minced chipotle peppers
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
S & P
2 cups chicken stock
1 can V8 juice
1/4 cup lime juice
1/2 cup of sweet corn
1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can of diced fire roasted tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
Preheat a large pot on medium heat. Season the chicken with S & P and brown in about 2 tablespoons of olive oil; then add the garlic when the chicken is nearly done. Then pour in the stock and V8 juice, and dump in everything else. Let it simmer for fifteen or twenty minutes.
It's exceptionally good with a hunk of cornbread.
The thing is, I don't know what to call it. "Spicy Chicken Soup" is just so unoriginal and uninspired. Someone give it a good name, please.

Stemming from cleaning out the deep freezer and, "What do I do with 2 smoked duck breasts?" I came up with this little number:
