Homemade Refried Beans

Homemade Refried Beans by John Spottiswood

I'm ashamed to say that though I LOVE refried beans, this is the first time I've ever made them myself. It's just so easy to buy them in a can, or at a mexican restaurant, that I haven't bothered. But this recipe is simple and it is definitely worth the effort in my mind. I figure my kids are the true test, since they aren't that…

Easy Tres Leches Cake

Easy Tres Leches Cake by myra byanka

This is an easy to prepare cake mix recipe version of the popular Mexican confection. It is a very moist cake, once the three milks have saturated it, so you'll need a spatula to remove the pieces from the pan.

Incredible Mexican-Style Corn on the Cob

Incredible Mexican-Style Corn on the Cob by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

Street vendors across Mexico sell this delicious grilled corn topped with mayonnaise, chili powder and cheese. I’m making the sauce using a small amount of light mayonnaise and nonfat yogurt. The corn can be grilled or broiled in the oven. I’ve included both ways of cooking it. The skinny for 1 serving, 110 calories, 3.7 grams of fat…

Pink Grapefruit Margaritas

Pink Grapefruit Margaritas by Nancy Miyasaki

I adapted this recipe from the Barefoot Contessa and served it for Thanksgiving. It was a beautiful sunset on a beach near Santa Barbara, and these were the perfect accompaniment! They are salty, sweet and a tiny bit sour. They were great with cheese and crackers...and might have been even better with chips and guacamole! Not sure…

Easy Red Enchilada Sauce

Easy Red Enchilada Sauce by myra byanka

A Tex-Mex 101 sauce for enchiladas and tamales. Makes enough for about 12 flour tortilla enchiladas, which absorb more sauce than corn tortillas.

Mexican Salmon

Mexican Salmon by Unknown Chef

This is one of my “what do I have" meals. I usually have frozen wild caught salmon (bought at Sam's), Quinoa, Hatch jalapeños, Hatch Green Medium (heat) Chili, and pinto beans; hanging around. Any type of protein is good for the base including tofu. When we want tofu I buy "extra firm" and press the water out, using a flat dish. We…

Baja Fish Sandwich with Chipotle Tartar Sauce

Baja Fish Sandwich with Chipotle Tartar Sauce by Kathleen is Cooking in Mexico

This popular Mexican sandwich originated in Baja California, Mexico, and is now found across the country in favorite tourist destinations. It is commonly served with a thin mayonnaise sauce, but I like to serve it with a Chipotle Tartar Sauce. Chipotles are smoked, dried jalapeños, and provide color and a hint of smoky flavor. Serve…

This spectacular Mexican layered casserole is hearty and healthy. It’s loaded with lean protein from the chicken, reduced-fat cottage cheese and fat-free refried beans. It’s perfect for those sensitive to wheat since we’re using corn tortillas instead of lasagna noodles. The skinny on this generous serving is only 359 calories, 5…

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…

Pork Tacos cooked in a spicy green chili sauce

Pork Tacos cooked in a spicy green chili sauce by Spicie Foodie

Yummy tacos in spicy green chili sauce! A couple of days ago I posted a recipe for my green chili salsa, well I had a lot left over and rather than trowing a perfectly good sauce away I looked in refrigerator to see what or how to use it up, other than with chips. Pork , tortillas, cilantro and onions ....Taco night!
