Stuffed Peppers - Mexican Taco StyleStuffed Peppers are so easy to change up flavor wise. These are made with a Mexican taco flavor. I used cous-cous instead of rice because my son doesn't really like rice. But you can use rice, cracked wheat or quinoa whatever you like. I also use mild chilies but for a spicier dish you could use jalapenos. For the meat in this… |

Cool and Creamy Cilantro DipThis is a great dip that I made to go along with fish tacos. But after we tried it we decided we will be making it again as just a dip for tortilla chips and veggies. And we are going to figure out how to use it on a pizza ! |

Mexican Black Bean and Corn SaladThis is a great side dish for picnics and outdoor parties since there is no mayo in it. The cilantro, fresh garlic and lime juice really bring a crisp freshness to this salad/ salsa. It's great on it's own but its also wonderful with fish tacos or as a salsa with corn chips... great over eggs or in an omelet. Cook time refers to… |

Mexican Style Beef Stew (Crockpot)This is a nice spicy change from your everyday beef stew. You can spice it up more if you like. My son loves to eat it with tortilla chips and some cornbread. You can garnish it w a dollop of sour cream on top and/or shredded cheddar cheese and fresh chopped cilantro. |

Chipotle Smoked Red Pepper SauceThis sauce is adapted from one in Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill cookbook. The honey and chipotle puree make for a sweet/hot flavor that is very good. I used more oil than originally called for, increased the amount of onion and added mayonnaise to thicken the sauce slightly. It refrigerates well and can be used as a condiment on most… |

Homemade Flour Tortillas for BeginnersMake a recipe of these easy prep tortillas, and freeze what you don't need. They are one of the best bread doughs to freeze because nothing in terms of flavor or consistency changes when thawed. There are many videos on YouTube on how to handmake tortillas.

Strawberry Jicama SalsaThis is the result of trying to use leftover ingredients from other recipes. What I had on hand resulted in a different salsa that I used with grilled Mojo chicken breasts and baked plantains. It is quick and easy to make. Refrigerate for a couple of hours so the flavors can meld. |

Homemade Refried BeansI'm ashamed to say that though I LOVE refried beans, this is the first time I've ever made them myself. It's just so easy to buy them in a can, or at a mexican restaurant, that I haven't bothered. But this recipe is simple and it is definitely worth the effort in my mind. I figure my kids are the true test, since they aren't that… |

Easy Tres Leches CakeThis is an easy to prepare cake mix recipe version of the popular Mexican confection. It is a very moist cake, once the three milks have saturated it, so you'll need a spatula to remove the pieces from the pan. |
