Cinco de Mayo Recipes

Hola!

Saturday is Cinco de Mayo! That is the fifth of May for those of you who are not bilingual....
I will be spending the day brewing cerveza with my hermano Lukey and attending a few fiestas.

Here are some great recipe recommendations to celebrate the day:

Margarita Spritzer: from Skinny Taste, this is a lower calorie adult beverage.  It looks very refreshing and a little strong.  If you make these, remind your guests to sip.

Bobby Flay Guacamole: this recipe makes a lot of Guac' and yet I still have never left a party without the bowl licked clean.

Carnitas: if you are cooking for a crowd try this recipe from Pioneer Woman.  The spicy pulled pork is so good in a tortilla with some crunch napa cabbage and salsa on top.  This is also a very low maintenance recipe.

Margarita Cookie Bars: a very festive baked good!

Cilantro Lime Fish Tacos: I originally posted this recipe for a lenten Friday option but it is good year round.

Chicken Salsa Chili: another great make ahead option.  Serve this with some tortilla chips and cilantro.

¡Salud!
