Prepare a Fiesta with Mexican Fare
Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with south-of-the-border-style dishes. To help you prepare the ultimate fiesta grande,
Mealtime.org
offers plenty of traditional
Mexican dishes
that will turn your Cinco de Mayo extravaganza into a true celebration.
Tropical Margarita
Grab a can of tropical fruit salad from the pantry and whip up a cool, refreshing Mexican cocktail. This ice-cold infusion is easily created with a quick whirl of the blender for a fruit purée, then a quick shake of all the ingredients.
Mexican Veggie Toss
Shake up the party with this Mexican dish that’s essentially all veggies! Toss canned black beans, tomatoes, corn and chiles, along with green onions, cilantro and hot sauce. Serve with toasted chile-seasoned pita triangles or tortilla chips for traditional Mexican flavor.
Margarita Fajitas with Peppered Salsa
Add some zest to your Mexican fiesta. Roll tequila-lime-marinated chicken and a zesty salsa made from canned beans, pineapple and chipotle chile inside whole-wheat tortillas. It’s a Mexican sensation that delivers fiber and protein.
