Today I’m sharing my recipe for Shrimp Tacos.  This has been a go-to spring and summer dinner recipe in my house for over 10 years.  It’s simple, easy to make and full of flavor.  You can easily pair it with black beans, my Mexican rice and my Mexican corn to complete the meal.   I like to use either the outdoor grill with a grill basket or an indoor cast iron grill.  I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do! ??Grocery Giveaway Closed??

This week I’m making Mexican Corn and announcing the two winners of the SenaSea Seafood contest.  The randomly selected winners of the SenaSea Seafood contest are Melanie and Byron and they have been notified via email about their win, and your Salmon Dinner for 8 will be on the way very shortly. Now to the Mexican Corn recipe, this is a really easy recipe with a really big taste payoff.   So let’s start with making the corn, you can grill, broil or steam it.  I like grilling it, but always remember to keep the husk on if you are grilling or broiling to keep it moist, otherwise it has a tendency to dry out.  Here’s what I do: Soak the corn in the husk in water for 20 minutes before cooking.  If you grill the corn, put it on the grill at a very high heat for 20 minutes, turning the corn at the 10… Read More

This week I’m making my extra fabulous Mexican rice for you. I love to use this rice as a side dish for my enchiladas and any other Mexican items but it’s also great as a side dish with steak or chicken. This recipe is special because I use Rotel tomatoes in it which gives it a nice little kick.  I hope you love it as much as I do.

This week I’m sharing one of my favorite recipes with you Chicken Tortilla Soup, which is naturally (or at least it should be) gluten free. There are many of different ways and recipes for making Tortilla Soup.  I like this recipe because it doesn’t take as long as most recipes and a lot of the work is done for you in a blender or food processor.  I was joined by my fellow Lipstick Sisters Stephanie Kwong and Lisa Kiyomi in the making of my YouTube video too.  We had such a great time sharing stories, bonding over food and enjoying the delicious rewards of our work (scroll to the bottom for some photos from the set).  Please let me know if you try the recipe and what you think.

This is Part 1 of my Mexican Feast series, Chicken Enchiladas.  I love Chicken Enchiladas and they are naturally gluten free and full of flavor.  Hooray!! As you may have picked up, I love Mexican Food…to me it’s just food.  When I learned I had to give up gluten, I was so happy to find out that I could continue to eat one of the biggest food types I eat…Mexican.  These enchiladas will take you about 1 1/2 hours to prepare from start to finish, you won’t have to be working the whole time but make sure you’re not hungry when you start making these.  I like to make these on the weekend and freeze the leftovers for lunch or fast dinners during the week.
