Nothing beats a restaurant-style Mexican dish made easy! And just in time for Cinco de Mayo, you'll HAVE to take notes! My slow-cooked, decadent chicken birria meets oey gooey pepperjack cheese and fresh toppings, wrapped together in a crispy flour tortilla. I'm in taco heaven. Hope you all enjoy another fabulous recipe!

Today, we're cooking Tex-Mex, southwestern style!! And I couldn't be more excited... I recently had fajitas from a restaurant and knew I could make it even better myself... so I did! Simple ingredients are key here, so you can leave room to layer flavors when you serve! Spicy and flavorful chicken, with perfectly cooked vegetables, layered on tortilla with sour cream, salsa, cheese, and avocado... I'm getting hungry all over again... Hope you all enjoy the new recipe! Happy cooking!

Earlier this week, after a few hours spent in the spring cold watching my youngest daughter win her first tennis meet (yay, Maya!), I realized that I had yet to give dinner a second thought. What to do but scour the pantry for ideas once I got home! My eye caught the dried chilis I always keep on hand, and a lightbulb went off. Chili chicken! So delicious, and the simple added step of using your own dried chilis takes chicken tacos to a whole new level. Just a few steps, and under an hour, you’ll have your own authentic Mexican dinner at home. Hope you all enjoy!

Today, I try my hand at a recipe that I've wanted so long to create... tacos de papa! I loved the idea of frying a taco, and on top of that, filling it with potatoes?? This isn't the healthiest vegetarian delight, but wow is it delicious!! If you love Mexican food (and fried food!) as much as I do, I just know this is the recipe for you. Enjoy!!

Memorial Day weekend was our first big vacation since summer break started and we finally got caught up on some much needed family time! Taking in the beautiful sights of the lake on our walks, having drinks out in front of the water, boating, tanning, and of course cooking! The vacationing didn't stop as soon as dinner had to be made, so I chose to create a fun and delicious smothered enchiladas recipe! With the help of my kids too, it simply added to the time we got to share all together in one place, which I will not soon forget! Hope you all had a great holiday weekend, and enjoy another amazing recipe!

I love my one-dish recipes, especially with a cast iron, but this has to be near the top of my list. I mean, with potatoes, bacon, jalapeños, guacamole, and tortillas to top, how could you go wrong?? This dish is not only super easy, (one of the ingredients is store-bought guacamole!) it brings out the best in its simple yet dependable ingredients and makes an absolutely delicious dinner. I might just have to go make a plate with the leftovers... Hope you all enjoy!

In one of the easiest recipes I think I've ever published, I'm making an easy and delicious quesadilla, vamping up a simple recipe to be used in any kitchen! The magic comes from that charred pepper crema... probably the star of the show. I can't get enough of eat! For a simple mexican lunch or dinner, this is the exact recipe for you. I hope you all enjoy!!

Let’s face it. I love stew. I love anything soup stew or chili— comfort in a bowl. Of course, in the winter, it warms your belly and fills your soul! But now spring is upon us and honestly, I feel like it’s good any time of the year! So, bring. It. On. This time I had a little help in my kitchen— my Mom. Growing up, she always had me in the kitchen with her so it was fun to prep and chop and chat away. Nothing better!

It would only be once in a blue moon that we don’t have Mexican on the weekly menu, and this week is no exception! Today, I’m featuring a delectable recipe for something that I’ve dearly loved since I lived in San Diego in my twenties… Carne Asada! And what better way to enjoy carne asada than taco-style? Paired with the fresh and simple Salsa Fresca, you’ll have a hard time finding any better. Enjoy!!

Hi Creme friends! I hope you are enjoying the start of the holiday season. It’s my favorite time of year! Recently, I went to a small gathering for a holiday “Favorite Things” party. You bring three of your “favorite” gift ideas to the party, draw names, and then pass out the gifts! There was food and wine and great conversation with lots of laughter, of course! But the main event for me was—you guessed it—the food.

Tonight, we feast on enchiladas! We've had such a great time coming up with easy family dinners lately, and that doesn't stop here! And using spices and ingredients you can find in your own pantry, anyone can be a genuine tex-mex chef! And who doesn't LOVE cheese??
