Garlic-Butter Octopus Jalisco-style by John Spottiswood

This dish is my best rendition of a traditional meal served in the state of Jalisco in Mexico. We had this first in a small local restaurant in downtown Puerto Vallarta, and have been in love with it since!

Ceviche de Pescado by Rosamaria Faz

Makes a great healthy option for warm summer days. Weather a main dish or appetizer, it pairs great with good beer.

An authentic Mexican soup, hearty and delicious

Grilled Whole Fish Adobado by John Spottiswood

This is a delicious fish that is one of the most famous dishes of the Jalisco state in Mexico. We've eaten this a few times in restaurants near Puerto Vallarta...and love it! The recipe is adapted from one by Rick Bayless (exec. chef of the Frontera Grill in Chicago), who is one of my favorite chefs.

Man pleasing Turkey Chimichangas by jan jan

The best and easiest way to use leftover turkey. Thanksgiving dinner is great but after a few days it is time to change the flavor. This recipe is easy and my men love it!
