Shrimp In Cilantro SauceServe 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 StewThis 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 Chicken Corn ChowderWe 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. |

Grilled Shrimp TacosI 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.

Cookin' Cowgirls GuacamoleLots 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. |
