This paleo Restaurant Style Salsa Recipe combines fire-roasted canned tomatoes with fresh onion, garlic, jalapeno, lime juice, and cilantro for a salsa that’s as easy to make as it is flavorful!
The past three times I’ve gone to Wegmans I’ve seen a homemade guacamole and fresh salsa display front-and-center in their produce area. They have all the fixings you need to make your own, and there are also tubs of store-made guac and fresh salsa.…
In this Low Carb Chicken Enchiladas Recipe, sliced deli meat stands in for tortillas to roll up a savory cheesy chicken filling for a delicious low carb take on enchiladas! It’s a great way to use rotisserie chicken or leftover turkey after Thanksgiving. Like Indian food, I could eat Mexican or Tex-Mex at least a couple times a week and probably never get sick of it. There’s something about the combination of a slow-cooked complex-flavored sauces paired with the fresh bright flavors of cilantro or salsa fresca and a crumbly, salty cheese that I find irresistible....
This Low Carb Cheesy Chicken Casserole with Poblano Peppers is a fun Tex-Mex twist on your basic chicken casserole! I know this is a pretty bold statement, but I have to say, chicken is my favorite protein. Not only is it mild in flavor and aroma (unlike some things like lamb and certain types of seafood), but it’s a wonderful blank slate to showcase other flavors. Chicken lends itself well to any number of cuisines, can be prepared in a variety of different ways, and is one of the most crowd-pleasing meats....
Take 10 minutes to throw this recipe for Coffee-Spiked Slow Cooker Beef Carnitas in the slow cooker in the morning and come home to endless possibilities for dinner. We all have certain meals that we turn to time after time. Chicken soup when we’re sick or chocolate cake for a birthday celebration. A favorite meatless meal on Mondays or pizza on Fridays. A slow-cooked roast or hearty stew in winter....
These kid-friendly lactose-free Easy Vegetarian Baked Taquitos are full of gooey cheese and Tex-Mex flavor, and couldn’t be easier to make! Every December, it’s easy to get swept up in the allure of baking in general and cookie-making in particular. But there’s a whole host of holiday parties going on and we need regular food too, right?!...
These freezer-friendly Cheesy Beef-Stuffed Poblano Peppers with Easy Roasted Tomato Chili Sauce is full of Tex-Mex flavors without too much spicy heat; it’s a real crowd-pleaser! When I was in law school I fell into a weekly Tex-Mex routine with few friends. We’d meet at a local dive on Thursday evenings and order a bunch of different dishes to eat family-style. In addition to the food being great (because we all know sometimes the shadiest dives have the best food), the atmosphere was so much fun: lively with music, bright-colored décor, and lots of laughter. I remember one particularly crazy night that involved an extremely […]...
This quick-cooking 20-Minute Chicken Fajita Quinoa Dinner Skillet is cooked on the stovetop, and is a great recipe to have up your sleeve for those busy summer nights when you don’t want to heat up the oven or fire up the grill! It’s a great way to use leftover chicken too. So, Mike still won’t eat quinoa. I wish we could be one of those happy dinner households where they make one meal and all sit down to enjoy the same thing together like The Brady Bunch or something. That has just never been the case with us....
Oh bloody hell!, I told my niece after told me she was in the mood for tacos again. (What is it with kids and tacos?) And then I realized that our Harry Potter movie marathon had gone on for far too long, as evidenced by me using Ron’s catch phrase again....
A while ago, a reader requested recipes that freeze and reheat well. Things like casseroles or stews that make good gifts for neighbors or new moms, or are perfect for keeping stocked in your own freezer for busy nights....
