Mexican Grilled Corn Chowder

Mexican Grilled Corn Chowder
Confession time: I’ve never really been a big fan of corn chowder (but I AM a big fan of saying “CHOWDAH!” in a thick Boston accent every time I hear the word). I do enjoy me some Mexican grilled corn in the summahtime, though (I’m afraid the rest of this post will now be in a Boston accent). Grilled corn on the cob is great and all, but when you slather it with some mayo, chili powder, lime juice and crumbly cheese, oh my LAWD. My mouth... Read More ›

Rhubarbaritas
Bebop-a-reebop, Rhubarbaritas. Wait, that’s not how it goes, is it… In any case, rhubarb pie is so last season – this year, it’s all about the rhubarb-flavored margarita. Oh yes, you read right. Rhubarb simple syrup gets its shake on with lime juice and tequila in this delicious, tangy and tart springtime cocktail. It might sound complicated, but it’s seriously one of the easiest drinks I’ve ever made (and that’s coming from som... Read More ›

Mexican Michelada Cocktail
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again: If I could eat only one type of food the rest of my life, it would be Mexican. True story. I never get sick of enchiladas; tacos are a significant part of my childhood; I could eat salsa by the shovelful; and I dream about quesadillas in my sleep. So it’s no surprise that when the husband and I discovered Micheladas – a spicy Mexican beer cocktail – it was love at first sip. What sealed t... Read More ›

Huevos Ranchicken
If you’ve ever been to a Tex-Mex place for breakfast, you’re probably familiar with huevos rancheros. It’s a traditional Mexican breakfast with beans, cheese, tortillas and eggs. It’s really hard to beat a good huevos rancheros breakfast, but I think I may have done it! Let me introduce you to the Huevos Ranchicken, which is very similar to the traditional recipe except wrapped in a burrito and topped with a delicious guacamole sauce.... Read More ›

Zesty Lime-Fish Tacos
So Pillsbury is having their annual bake-off contest right now, and I was asked to grab an old recipe from the past. I found these fish tacos wrapped in BISCUITS and nearly lost it. A) You already know of my unwavering devotion to the taco. B) If you don't already know of the unwavering devotion, sit down. C) I have this unwavering devotion to the taco. So unwavering that not even wild llamas wearing plaid skorts could distract me from it.... Read More ›

Irish Guacamole
Irish food isn’t known for being inventive. I’m not saying it isn’t delicious, but most Irish pubs I’ve ever been to have basically the same food. But that doesn’t mean we have to stop there. Sometimes it can be easy to take a traditional dish, add a few quick ingredients, and end up with something very unique. Like my Irish Guacamole! I make this all the time for St. Patrick’s Day. It’s a really fun dip with basic ingredient... Read More ›

Mexican Chicken Pasta Bake
I don't want to say this too loud, so would you mind leaning in a little? Just a little closer. Little more. WHOA, okay not that close. Alright, here goes: I've been known to be...cheap. Or as I like to call it, an adorable frugalista with magic money saving powers who wears a pink glitter cape and flies around from land to land sprinkling inspirational dust upon those in need. I'm TOTALLY kidding, you guys! The cape has baby blue glitt... Read More ›

Fried Tamale on a Stick
Tamales are one of my favorite things in the world. They’re a simple, gluten-free bread that is as easy to make as tossing together a few ingredients and steaming for a few hours. Once you get the basics down, the possibilities are endless! Fill it with anything from ground beef, stewed meats, or fresh veggies. Augment the dough with fresh corn, sweet potatoes, or even squash. Today I decided to try a handheld snack version of the popular M... Read More ›

Churro Fries
Welcome to a lesson in “How to Turn a Mistake into a Masterpiece 101.” Take a seat, let’s get started. My example for today is Churro Fries. Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside and bursting with sweetness, they are impeccably delicious. And yet, mine were initially a blunder. Before my recipe turned into the magical creation that it is today, it was intended to be something different. If you’re not catching my drift here, th... Read More ›
