texas date loaf candy by Marlin Rinehart

This is a delicious old-fashioned Texas recipe similar to fudge but is shaped into a log and sliced. I was surprised to learn from a Mexican cookbook it is also made in old Mexico.

Tex-Mex Chalupas with Quick, Easy Taco Filling by Marlin Rinehart

Southwestern Waffles

Southwestern Waffles by Salad Foodie

If you like waffles and you like salsa, you'll probably like them together!
