Southwestern Shell Pasta Salad by Salad FoodieChop, chop, chop and get your frustrations out making this pasta salad with south-of-the-border appeal. Choose your heat level by amount of peppers, hot sauce and chilies you add. This yields a generous bowl and serves 12-14. Make this ahead of time and chill ~ if you can wait and can keep everyone out too! |

Mexican Rice by John SpottiswoodI was looking for an improved Mexican Rice recipe, so I adapted this one from the America's Test Kitchen cookbook. I used many of the same ingredients, but instead of baking it, which seemed like a waste of energy, I finished it in my rice cooker. The result was a very flavorful and wonderfully textured mexican rice. Browning the… |

Healthy Fish Tacos by Marci ClarkI loved fish tacos, but didn't really like the fat in deep frying or the mess it makes in the house. This recipe is a similar take on baked unfried chicken. This recipe actually makes the fish crispier than frying and it holds up well with the delish dill sauce! |

Fire Roasted Tomato & Jalapeño Salsa by Marlin RinehartThis authentic Mexican salsa is by far my favorite. The tomatoes, preferably Romas, are roasted under the broiler until the skins are partially charred with black spots. The intense heat internally caramelizes some of the natural fruit sugar. The garlic and jalapeño are also roasted. Roasting gives the salsa character and depth of… |

It's a must after Thanksgiving. If you don't have time to fully caramelize the onions just try and cook then slow enough to pull out that sweet and creamy texture. I also started using Cream Soup Starter by… |

Stuffed Peppers - Mexican Taco Style by Denise SherinStuffed 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… |

This would be a great alternative to carnitas for a… |
