I’m leaning on the freezer more than usual lately, and these Spicy Beef Taquitos are my latest addition. You’ll get 24 scrumptious taquitos from this recipe — which means you’ve got plenty of free meals coming your way over the next couple weeks! Just plop ’em in the oven, set the timer, and chill until…
Main Dish
Here are my site's recipes that can be used as a Main Dish! Lots of great options here for dinner but keep an eye out for the Picadillo and the Slow Cooker Carnitas.
Eggs Poached in Chipotle Salsa
These Eggs Poached in Chipotle Salsa are the perfect example of some last-minute improvisation. In other words… Getting hangry…need food NOW…what’s in the fridge?! I’m constantly tweaking the serving style of these eggs, but the main attraction — poached eggs served up in a delicious Salsa broth — is a verified home run and it’s…
Easy Taco Salad
This Easy Taco Salad has been such a welcome change of pace in my kitchen over the past couple weeks. Maybe it will fire up your kitchen too?! It’s quite versatile so feel free to get creative with the toppings, but the Avocado Dressing is non-negotiable! The creamy, delicious green sauce brings it all together…
Easy Calabacitas Soup
This easy Calabacitas Soup is a combo of three of my favorite creations on the site: Souper Broth — a tomato-onion-garlic broth that’s wildly satisfying and acts as the base for Albondigas Soup and Chicken Tortilla Soup. Better Vegetable Stock — a homemade veggie stock that’s easy to make and has a bump in flavor…
Sopes With Refried Beans and Cheese
Sopes in the house! They may sound exotic, but if you’ve ever made corn tortillas at home then you’re just a couple steps away from an authentic batch of Sopes. I topped this batch with refried beans and Queso Fresco, but they are wildly versatile and willing to accommodate your palate. How To Make Sopes…

Easy Enchiladas Verdes
When you’re cooking almost every meal at home then the recipes tend to get simpler right? I think that’s why I’ve been making these Enchiladas Verdes more often over the past few months. It’s one of the easiest enchilada dishes you’ll ever make, but don’t let the simple ingredient list fool you as you can get…
Mexican Shredded Chicken
I’ve been getting frequent questions on Shredded Chicken so hopefully this post will shred any doubt you have before making your next batch! But please keep in mind that your taste buds are the boss and there are no hard set rules here. Once you find the cooking style you prefer then you can move…
Birria de Res Recipe (Beef Birria)
After weeks of making vegetarian dishes I started to crave this rich, succulent Birria de Res for some reason 🙂 And while Birria is traditionally made with goat in Mexico, I get way more mileage from a batch of Beef Birria so I used beef brisket for this batch. This 3 lb. recipe will…
