Happy Cinco de Mayo!
Mexican food is one of my favorites...we make it at least 1-2 times a week. So in honor of the holiday, I thought I'd show off some of my favorites.

We made these chipotle lime shrimp tacos last week and they were SO good! You can find the recipe here.
Over the weekend, we went out to date night and got this red jalapeño margarita. So spicy and good! You can find a similar recipe here. Our go-to margarita recipe is 2 shots of tequila {clear is best, I like Camerna Silver}, 2 shots freshly squeezed lime juice, and 1 shot agave syrup. Easy peasy and SO good!
If you have leftover strawberry salsa from the tacos, mash it up with some avocados and enjoy as guacamole. I also like adding pomegranate seeds or mango.
For some other festive recipes, check out my recipe library. I've got some good ones!

ReplyDeleteMmmmm...happy Cinco! I love adding mango to my guacamole too. And this post really makes me want a margarita. I've been craving one for weeks. Might have to make a batch of virgin ones tonight to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteHappy Cinco de Mayo! This makes me hungry and I don;t know weather to have Mexican for lunch or for dinner...or BOTH! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Cinco de Mayo! That jalepeno margarita looks delish! Waiting for the babe to wake up so we can go to Baja Fresh, since Happy Hours are no longer quite fitting. :P Can't wait to get my hands on some guac!
