Shrimp In Cilantro Sauce

Shrimp In Cilantro Sauce by Robyn Savoie

Serve this lively cilantro-accented shrimp with rice to help quell the heat of the hot peppers. This recipe will make enough sauce for dipping (salsa), over eggs in the morning and dipping veggies. You can easily use thinly sliced chicken in place of the shrimp.

Pork and Hominy Stew

Pork and Hominy Stew by Robyn Savoie

This savory combination could be described as a posole -- a thick, hearty Mexican soup traditionally served as a main course at Christmas. Sprinkle shredded radishes over the top for a festive presentation.

Mexican Pozole II (Posole)

Mexican Pozole II (Posole) by Salad Foodie

This is the second installment on my mission to try different methods of making pozole. It has similar ingredients as the first one I posted (see “Useful Links” below), is less spicy and requires a longer cook time. Here are some things I liked about this one: (1) ease of preparation - just dump everything in the pot (2) a generous…

Mexican Chicken Corn Chowder

Mexican Chicken Corn Chowder by Salad Foodie

We never wait for fall for this favorite of all chowders, but enjoy it year round. A good way to use up leftover roast chicken, and the ingredients go together quickly for a fast weeknight dinner. Can be lightened by subbing fat-free half and half, or a 12 ounce can evaporated milk for the cream.

Taco Sauce #2

Taco Sauce #2 by myra byanka

This is inexpensive to make, stays in the fridge for weeks, and is a nice, basic sauce to drizzle on tacos or over tortilla dishes for decoration, i.e., it is not a cooking sauce. It's very mild, so kids might like it.

Texas groceries sell hatch peppers by the case for people who like these delicious peppers, which are gone by the end of August. Some groceries will roast these chiles on site, usually on Saturdays, when they become…

Grilled Shrimp Tacos

Grilled Shrimp Tacos by Carolinaheartstrings

I cannot get enough of them. I love everything about this dish. Depending on how spicy you like your shrimp you can grill them with no spice, a little spice or lots of spice. I like mine grilled with just a dusting of chili powder. Use your favorite kind of shell, corn or flour, crispy or not and pile the shrimp high with my pico…

Cookin' Cowgirls Guacamole

Cookin' Cowgirls Guacamole by myra byanka

Lots of great recipes for guacamole, but here's one you may like, also. Use Haas avocados, if possible. Many Mexican-Americans I know save the seed to put on top of the guacamole to keep it from turning color.
