Cowboy Caviar

Cowboy Caviar by Lynn Yamamoto

This is fresh, healthy and delicious. People love it, even kids. You can make it ahead, so it's great for a summer party. Serve it with scoop-shaped tortilla chips, or have it on the side as a relish. I add extra cilantro, because there can never be too much cilantro!

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…

Fresh Tomato Salsa

Fresh Tomato Salsa by Phyllis Munro

I love making fresh salsa! This is great served with chips, taco's I made a batch this evening to serve with my Huevos Rancheros! This salsa is a snap to make if you purchase that handy dandy chopper I was talking about in an earlier post. You can see by the photo everything is evenly chopped. I slice my tomatoes and then pop the…

Fish Tacos with Lime-cilantro salsa

Fish Tacos with Lime-cilantro salsa by Nancy Miyasaki

Cumin, coriander, and paprika give these fish tacos a wonderfully warm flavor. The tangy sour cream, lime and cilantro sauce contrasts perfectly. Try shrimp for the snapper or romaine in place of cabbage to change it up if you like.

Mexican Garlic Broiled Tilapia

Mexican Garlic Broiled Tilapia by John Spottiswood

I love the lime-garlic flavored fish that I get when I'm down in Mexico, especially in Puerto Vallarta. Normally it is grilled down there, but I think the recipe on the broiler does an even better job. The fish stays very moist, but still gets a little crispy on top from the broiler. The lemon-garlic-butter flavor is to die for. My…

Guacamole from Oaxaca

Guacamole from Oaxaca by John Spottiswood

This is an easy to make, flavorful, and slightly spicy guacamole. Previously I never blended the onion, garlic and cilantro into a puree as this calls for, and I think it does a better job of distributing the flavors evenly. It also reduces the amount of fine mincing required. Even if you've got a trusted guacamole recipe, you…

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…

Roasted Tomatillo Salsa

Roasted Tomatillo Salsa by Cindy McNamara

I picked up a bunch of nice looking tomatillos at the local farmers market this week that were crying to be charred on the grill and made into a spicy salsa for me to can. It could be eaten fresh and would last a couple of weeks in the fridge. If you don't want so much heat, simply reduce the jalapeno quantity.

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!
