If you like traditional spinach artichoke dip then you’re going to love this spin on the classic! This Spinach Poblano Dip is full of flavor and poblano peppers are subbed for the artichoke for an extra little something. If you’re not familiar with poblano peppers don’t even worry about it! They are mild in flavor and in spice. Think of them as more sophisticated bell peppers. The flavors of the poblano pepper really come out when the peppers are cooked, either sauteed or roasted. You can absolutely roast the peppers for this recipe but I am all about convenience and like to saute them with the rest of the veggies to make it quick and easy. To be on the safe side when working with poblanos just take out the seeds and veins to ensure the dip is not spicy. However, if you’re like me and like the spice then add on a jalepeno for an extra kick. OOOOH man, it’s a darn good kind of kick!

The rice absorbed all of the flavor from cooking the chicken in the same pan and it was divine! Same goes for this cauliflower rice version.

Growing up we had ceviche tostadas, or ate it with tortilla chips like a dip, and it was one of the dishes I looked forward to the most. If there is one thing you need to know about me it’s the fact that I LOVE limes, all citrus really, and the tartness of all the lime juice in this is the absolute best!
CONTINUE READINGLooking for authentic red enchiladas, or enchiladas rojas? Look no further. These enchiladas are full of flavor and the sauce is definitely the star of the show!
Enchiladas rojas are on the top of my favorite foods list. Any time my mom made enchiladas it felt like a special occasion. You know how you don’t make lasagna often because it’s a bit tedious so you really only enjoy it every so often? Maybe not, maybe you’re the type to enjoy it all the time and to that I say more power to you! Anyway, enchiladas are like that. You make the sauce from scratch and take the time to dip each tortilla in the sauce before you fill it with the goods and roll it up. Why dip? Because that is the REAL way to get it done. Trust me, sauce all over those tortillas on every single inch of it is the way to go.

It is so incredibly easy and quick to put together for a last minute gathering, potluck, or snack!
CONTINUE READINGThis Mexican street corn dip is the perfect appetizer for a summer barbecue or just to snack on. All the ingredients and deliciousness from Mexican street corn converted to a dip. Make sure you have lots of tortilla chips on hand because you won’t be able to stop at just one dip!

Flan is a delicious custard made with eggs and a few other ingredients. The recipe for flan varies immensely from country to country and even region to region within a country. There is Spanish flan, Mexican flan, Cuban flan, and the list goes on. However, this is the flan I grew up eating and was taught to make by my mami. People will argue that the flan should have cream cheese, or only use a certain amount of egg yolks, or even debate on the type of milk used. Guess what? No one is right or wrong, this is just the way I am teaching you how a decadent and satisfying flan!
CONTINUE READINGThis one pan dish is perfect for a weeknight meal. Arroz con Pollo simply means rice with chicken and that’s exactly what it is. The rice gets so much flavor from the chicken that is seared first and cooked with the rice. Add this to your next meal plan for an easy and flavorful meal!
Arroz con Pollo is one of those dishes that brings back childhood memories. My mom often made this dish because it is so easy and economical. It also makes lots of food and is perfect for leftovers. The great thing about this dish is the amazing flavor the rice gets from the chicken. The chicken gets seared first and then is added back in to the rice to finish cooking and infuse the rice with lots of flavor.

However, these beauties are the perfect taco creation to enjoy any Taco Tuesday or any day your heart desires!
CONTINUE READINGWhen you need a break from meat, tacos de papa are the way to go. Tacos de papa, or potato tacos are so easy and simple but always satisfying!
I grew up eating LOTS of tacos de papa, or potato tacos, and they always hit the spot. Making these tacos brings back memories of spending time in the kitchen with my mom.

This was one of the first things I learned how to make from my mom and to this day I picture my 12 year old self making these. Potato tacos could not be easier to make. Let me give you a rundown of just how easy.

Chi-la-kee-les is how you pronounce this dish and trust me, you don’t have to say it right to thoroughly enjoy them. Chilaquiles are so versatile, economical, and easy to make. I am definitely giving you the “more complicated version” by making my own red sauce for these but you can certainly use your favorite sauce or salsa.

Speaking of peppers, let’s go ahead and talk about these a little more.

Growing up, fideo was a staple in our house. This “mexican spaghetti”, as my husband likes to call it, is so easy to make and requires minimal ingredients.

It adds the perfect flavor and color to this soup and you can use the rest of the paste for curries, stews, noodle bowls… the possibilities are endless!
CONTINUE READINGPozole is essentially a Mexican soup made with pork and hominy in a delicious broth made with dried peppers. The toppings vary from region to region but absolutely make this dish extra special. A traditional Mexican meal sure to satisfy your taste buds.
Growing up my abuelita, grandma, made Pozole for special occasions and sometimes random Sunday dinners. My mom also made it often at home and I quickly learned it is her favorite dish. It took me a while to put together this recipe because, as you can imagine, abuelita doesn’t measure anything. When I asked for a recipe she would say “unos cuantos chiles, poquito de esto, poquito de lo otro”. Essentially saying “a little bit of this and a little bit of that”. How is a woman supposed to work with that?! That just goes to show that she just used her senses and all the love to make this special dish.

However, that will always be some of the best champurrado I have ever had.

In fact, the hardest thing for me to give up and live without while doing a Whole30 is cheese. So you bet your butt this queso fundido is what my dreams are made of! There are various Mexican restaurants offering all kinds of versions of this and they’re all phenomenal, really. What I do have to tell you is how incredibly easy and quick it is. Fundido translates to molten, or melted, and it’s exactly just that: melted cheese.
CONTINUE READINGCauliflower is the perfect veggie to sneak into lots of dishes. It doesn’t have an overpowering taste but it definitely adds creaminess and absorbs all the flavors in this soup. Trust me, you won’t even know it’s in there. Plus, it will trick anyone into getting their veggies in AND it’s delicious. Win Win.

CONTINUE READINGDo you want and easy meal to have on a busy weeknight or to meal prep? This pork chile verde made with pork, potatoes, and salsa verde is here for YOU!
Growing up I noticed my mom was very resourceful when it came to planning meals for us. One thing she made often was carne con chile, or meat with chile sauce, like this pork chile verde. This was the logical thing to do with any left over salsa, veggies on hand, and meat found in the freezer. Making a salsa is so easy and economical and cooking any kind of meat in salsa makes for the perfect meal. Add a side of rice, calabacitas, or zucchini, and eat with tortillas.
CONTINUE READINGPozole is something I grew up eating my entire life. Hominy and meat in a broth made with spices and chiles, and all the garnishes your heart desires. However, pozole verde is something new, exciting, and different from the stuff my grandma made. This recipe is super easy and absolutely satisfying.
Ask anyone who is Mexican or comes from a Mexican family about pozole and they will describe pozole rojo to you. Traditional pozole rojo is made with a red sauce broth base that made with chiles guajillos and anchos. It is traditionally made with pork and always has hominy. In my family, pozole is served with shredded lettuce, radishes, oregano, and some lime juice. We always have a spicy red salsa on hand if we want some extra heat.
CONTINUE READINGAlbondiga Soup is made with albondigas, or meatballs, and lots of vegetables. This traditional Mexican soup is full of flavor with just enough spice to warm up your soul!
This Albondiga Soup was a staple in our house, especially in the winter. My mami would make huge batch of this soup along with a batch of Mexican rice or fideo. Traditionally the albondigas, or meatballs, are made with rice mixed into the meat mixture which is then cooked while the soup simmers. I wanted to make this Whole30 compliant version by omitting the rice but keeping the rest of the delicious ingredients and flavors that makes this soup so nostalgic.
