In honor of Cinco de Mayo and fabulous Mexican food, I thought I would share some of my favorite Mexican recipes.
Guava Pastelillos (Guava Cheese Turnovers)- run to the store and buy some guava paste now, you won’t be sorry.
Enchilada de Pollo y queso, aka Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas- these have the best flavor of any enchilada I’ve ever tasted.
*taken before my new camera and photo skills improved. I really need to update these pictures.
Jalapeno Margarita– what’s a party without a little sweet heat, these are a must try.
Or how about a refreshing little Tex Mex Margaritas, the Texas-tini.
Fish Tacos with Lemon Butter Sauce, inspired by my favorite restaurant Los Cucos.
Caldo de Pollo aka Chicken Soup, simple delicious and so very satisfying.
Ok so I cook lots of Mexican inspired dishes, I can’t help it, they are my fave!!

Seeing your roundup of fav Mexican foods for Cinco de Mayo makes me wish I put something together for it. I LOVE the guava pastelillos and the cheesy chicken enchiladas. Just give me some spicy beef empanadas, guacamole, and that jalapeno margarita, and I’m good to go. Definitely some sort of flan for dessert!http://thegourmetfoodblog.deandeluca.com/tequila-flan-recipe/
@Lisa, Lisa you should, I’d love to see it. That tequila Flan recipe looks to die for, I can’t wait to make it!! Thanks for sharing.
YUM! Those cheese turnovers look delicious 🙂
It was a wonderfully spicy day, wasn’t it?
Gotta say, the Pioneer Woman’s enchiladas (with red sauce) are to DIE for. Will not make any other enchilada recipe. But my favorite is my chicken tortilla soup, especially on a cold, rainy day.
