Cinco De Mayo
Ground Beef Enchilada Casserole
Ground Beef Enchilada Casserole is easier on your waistline. It gets a lot of flavor from dried chili pods, fresh corn, and the leanest ground beef. Tortillas for enchiladas are usually fried in oil to soften them, but not here.
Skinny Tamale Pie – Boswell Style
This Skinny Tamale pie is my version of my Grandmother’s famous recipe from the 1950s. Everything you expect with half the calories. Enjoy it with a salad and a glass of ice-cold beer.
You may remember that when I visited my cousin in South Carolina, part of the reason I did that was to get some of my grandmother’s recipes. I made both her Lemon Jello Cake and her tamale pie when I was there.
How to Preserve Avocado and Make Guacamole Correctly
How to preserve an avocado. Most of the recipes on the internet for guacamole are dead wrong because they include lime to prevent the avocado from browning. Today I’m going to show you what should be in it and how to store it properly. In her definitive cookbook, The Cuisines of Mexico, Dianne Kennedy’s canonical recipe for guacamole does NOT include lime. Guacamole is supposed to taste like buttery avocados, not lime.
How to Make Carnitas in the Instant Pot
We love Carnitas, and we love it, even more, when it’s quick in the Instant Pot. Using Taco Sauce gives great meat flavor, then finishing it in a Dutch oven makes it simple and tasty. We like it with guacamole, sour cream, salsa, and beans.
Fresh Tortilla Casserole – The Month of Mexican
There is nothing like fresh tortillas to make a great cheese casserole. When you are starting out making tortillas by hand, your tortillas might not turn out as nice and thin as those at the store, but that shouldn’t stop you. Use them for a casserole. You can use canned enchilada sauce as I did, or you can make your own salsa, which I will show in another post.
Quick Chili Rellenos – The Month of Mexican
These cheesy Quick Chili Rellenos are great for a weeknight and a good way to use up leftover mashed potatoes.
Street Dogs – Hot Dogs with Bacon and Peppers
Have the famous Street Dogs at home – jumbo franks wrapped in bacon with sauted jalapeno, onions and bell peppers. Have them with corn!
Green Chili Pork Stew for Cinco De Mayo!
Green Chili Pork Stew
This is a very versatile recipe because you can make it on the stovetop or you can make it in the Instant Pot. It’s also perfect for a Dutch oven, and you can use both methods together depending on how you like to cook. You can also add spice to make it spicier, or delete if you don’t like spicy.
Enchiladas with Three Pepper Sauce
I have been making these Enchiladas with Three Pepper Sauce for years. They are similar to Enchiladas Verde or Enchiladas Suizas. Even though there are three different types of peppers in the sauce, Pablano, Anaheim, and Jalapeño, the sauce is very mild. Because the peppers and tomatoes are charred, the flavor is really spectacular.
