Announce to your family that you’ll be serving Albondigas for dinner and you’re guaranteed to get some concerned looks. Albondigas isn’t exactly a common phrase North of the Border, but once you put a plate of these Mexican Meatballs on the table everyone will know exactly what you’re talking about. They are the very definition…
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.

This fiery version of Chicken Tinga is looking for a permanent home, preferably somewhere in your fridge. In exchange, it’ll provide all sorts of impromptu meals loaded with that savory Tinga flavor — your job is to eat them.

Mexican Frittata
If your weekly grocery list includes Mexican cooking ingredients then most likely you’ve already got everything you need to make a zippy Mexican Frittata. Frittatas are wildly versatile, and while many chefs will use them to showcase exotic flavor combos, the truth is they seem to work best when they are partnering up with the…
Rajas: Creamy Poblano Strips with Potatoes
Finally a Rajas recipe! Get in the habit of buying fresh poblanos and you’ll always have the option of whipping up a batch of Rajas.

World’s Best Chicken Tacos
These Chicken Tacos are not afraid to put themselves in the running for top taco. Of course, it’s worth noting who is making that claim. In this case, it’s someone (uhmmm…me) who has eaten various incarnations of these chicken tacos at least a couple hundred times over the past few years. But it’s not because…
One Pot Mexican Lentils and Rice
This easy Lentils and Rice recipe is my latest attempt to find a dish in the Mexican vegetarian realm that will keep me full for more than an hour. It certainly fits that bill and in addition to tasting muy bueno it also comes with an awesome side benefit — it’s ridiculously cheap to make,…

Beef Picadillo Skillet Pot Pie
This Beef Picadillo Skillet Pot Pie is not concerned with appearances. It’s very confident of its inner worth (flavor), so don’t sweat it if yours comes out looking disheveled. And while a pot pie might not be first on your list of go-to Mexican dishes, you’ll be gobsmacked at how well a light, flaky pastry combines…
Chicken Torta with Cilantro Lime Mayo
