Best Cinco de Mayo Recipes!
Creamy, Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas
It’s May already! Time just seems to fly by, doesn’t it?
No matter how you feel, it’s time for Americans to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, which by now, I hope most of you realize is not even celebrated in Mexico! Just another great reason to party, have a great time, and enjoy great Mexican food here in the States!
OK, so I know that these are not Italian recipes, but my husband and I love Mexican food! So I’m sharing the few and far between, delicious Mexican recipes that I consider in my family to be some of the best Cinco de Mayo recipes that I make over and over again by request of those in my Italian family that love Mexican food just as much as we do! Hey, even native Italians enjoy eating American hamburgers once in awhile!
What you see here on this post is just about all of the Mexican recipes that I’ve prepared . . . those of you have followed me over the years know that we eat out to satisfy our need for our Mexican food ‘fix’. Because we have some awesome Mexican eateries in town, I just can’t rival them in my home kitchen! We’re even known by our first name in these places. And if we don’t show up once a week for our weekly Mexican food fix, they ask “where the heck have you been?”
Now here are our favorite ‘at home’ Mexican recipes that I hope that you enjoy and let me know what you and your family and/or guests enjoyed!
The Best, Most Awesome Guacamole on the Planet!

Have fun and enjoy this Mexican festival . . . and if you try any of these recipes, please let me know what you think. I promise that I’ll share your comment at the bottom of my blog for all to read!!!

Hi Roz, All of your Cinco de Mayo recipes look so delicious! I want to try them all and hope to eventually. I hope you had a wonderful Cinco de Mayo and got to eat some great Mexican food. I’m glad you have so many good Mexican food restaurants in your area. I think I could eat it every day and never get tired of it!
WOW! what an amazing roundup i must say. I have my eye on that tres leches cake so pretty sure that is going to be on our table this week:)

They all look great Roz and I can see why they get requested, especially the chicken enchiladas – they sound awesome.
Great line up Roz. And a pitcher Sangria is always such beautiful site.
That guacamola looks darn good! Thanks for the roundup, Roz.
It’s nice to have a lot of ‘go to’ recipes in our kitchens, don’t you think Angie? Thanks for your visit! Love that gorgeous radish salad I just saw on your blog. YUM!
