Fish Taco Salad

Fish Taco Salad by Bob Vincent

This is adapted from a recipe that appeared in Cuisine at Home. The original used fresh tilapia that was deep fried in oil. Since I had frozen breaded cod on hand and wanted to reduce the calories a bit I elected to bake the fish. The recipe makes two huge main dish salads or four medium size servings. There will be dressing…

Grilled Pork Tenderloin Wtih Green Chile Tomatillo Sauce

Grilled Pork Tenderloin Wtih Green Chile Tomatillo Sauce by Bob Vincent

This is a tasty grilled pork dish. Different cuts of pork will work but we like the tenderloin best as it is lean and tender when grilled. I served the pork with annatto rice, green beans, flautas and guacamole. For a wine we had a 2008 Fenestra Lodi Silvaspoons Vineyards Alvarelhao. This grape is traditionally grown in…

Joyce's Fresh Jalapeno Salsa

Joyce's Fresh Jalapeno Salsa by Kathleen Scott

Joyce is the angel who helps care for my father. The last time I visited with my parents, Joyce taught us how to make fresh jalapeno salsa. Joyce's salsa puts the bottled stuff to shame and this "from-scratch" salsa is so easy we'll never buy salsa again. The only caveat is "know what you like"--for just a little heat, use just a…

Tequila Chicken with Plantain Croutons by The Gourmet Girl

The plantain croutons and tortilla bowl give this light salad just enough crunch to keep you 'happy.' A nice alternative recipe for Cinqo de Mayo.

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.

Fabulous Pork Tacos

Fabulous Pork Tacos by John Spottiswood

I made pork tacos for the Superbowl modeled after my favorite taqueria -- a hole in the wall in Playa Del Carmen called El Fogon. I may not have quite matched El Fogon, but these are darn good! I highly recommend them. I served them with Homemade Corn Tortillas (see my recipe) which were great, but they'll taste great with any…

Pork Posole

Pork Posole by Patrick Travis

An easy, rich, posole. I call out canned enchilada sauce, but if you have time to make one from scratch the posole is even better.

Peanut Butter Banana Tortilla Snack

Peanut Butter Banana Tortilla Snack by Spicie Foodie

Peanut Butter Banana Tortilla Snack or roll-ups, wow that's a name. Well I don't actually know what to call these yummy snacks, so that will have to do. My husband is the one who actually introduced me to and told me about the existence of these. He told me that in the American Southwest they are called peanut butter roll ups and are…
