Mexican Recipes
I stole this idea from “Top Chef” contestant Richard Blais and twisted it a bit to fit me. It’s so light and tasty I just scarfed down all of it.
Summer takes center stage.
A delicious, fresh tasting mexican salad. Add any fruits or veggies you have on hand. Also delicious in raw tortillas or in lettuce cups.
Jicama is fantastic all alone – in this salad, it is something quite special.
This quick salsa can be mixed and served with romaine leaves or as a soup. Thanks to Tommie for sharing this recipe!
Fast. Easy. No Questions Asked.
All you do is cut the catcus and mix the guacamole together.
This is a SIMPLE guacamole recipe. I really enjoy the fresh fiesta taste of avocado, heirloom tomato and cilantro! There are so many things you can add to liven it up: Fresh pressed garlic, chopped: onions, tropical fruits, stone fruits, bell pepper, cactus, sprouts, sunflower or hemp seeds, sprouted lentils, etc. - chili powder, cayenne, thai spices, dulse, raw honey or agave nectar… you get the idea!
I haven’t had something that tasted like this in a long time…legitimate Fajita Filling!
Thanks, Chris Carlton, for the Grilled Meat recipe! It is AMAZING.
Ever wonder what to do with your beautiful flowering squash blossoms? Stuff them!!! Enjoy some squash blossom burritos!
This is a really simple and delicious pico that I made even before I was raw.
This recipe originally called for tequila to be mixed with the lime-juice, but it is just as good without. It’s a good dish to serve at a party, and kids seem to like it too.
For the chili powder, I left the amount blank, because it really depends on the type you are using and your personal “spicy” preference. I use chipotle chili powder (not technically raw), and usually put around 1/2 tsp.
An extremely flavorful entree I made for dinner last night, I have been on vacation in New Mexico and thought I would attempt to utilize some native tastes, this dish is not nearly as complicated as it may appear, it is well worth the effort! Please allow yourself two to three days for the entire preparation.
This is a variation on Kandace´s gorgeous walnut taco meat. It is perfect for anyone who is feeling nuts and seeds are a little too heavy on their own whether due to taste or like me if you´re trying to slim down ;) Obviously feel free to play with the spice measurements. I LOVE cumin and garlic, so I use tons. I usually use a dash of nama shoyu but I was out today so I used a pinch of salt.
This is a delicious Fat-Free alternative to Guac. I could eat my own weight in guacamole if left to my own devices and this is a lighter alternative.
