Mexican and Mexican recipes for your Cinco de Mayo party or family dinner.

Even those that don’t have a drop of Mexican blood in their body love to partake of Mexican food and drinks each year on Cinco de Mayo, the fifth of May. The day commemorates the Mexican army’s victory over France atthe Battle of Peubla in 1862. In the United States, it’s a day a celebration of a rich heritage of culture and food.
All of these recipes are Mexican inspired – healthy, somewhat Americanized, versions of Mexican dishes.


Appetizers


Fresh Salsa – A basic salsa recipe using all the traditional ingredients –fresh tomatoes, jalapeno peppers, onion and cilantro. You’ll want double this one because it will go fast.


Asparagus Guacamole – Definitely not a traditional guacamole, but asparagus is in season right now, andit makes a delicious substitute. It’s also lower in fat that guacamole made with avocado.


Stuffed Jalepeno Chiles – These stuffed peppers are baked, not fried, so they are lower in fat, but still satisfying.


Main courses


Slow Cooker Shredded Beef for Tacos – The perfect choice if you can’t dedicate several hours to cooking up a Mexican feast. Let your slow cookerdo the hours worth of work. All you have to do is shred the beef when it’sdone cooking and add the toppings.


Grilled King Salmon with Roasted Tomatillo Sauce – Salmon is not whatyou would normally think of when you think Mexican, but this Mexican inspired dish uses a traditional sauce that complements the salmon or other varieties of fish very well.


Fish with Ancho Chile Paste and Cream – Another fish dish with a Mexican-style sauce that uses halibut, fancy rockfish, white seabass, or salmon.


Celebratory drinks


Ave Maria – Tomato and lime juices, vodka, chili paste, Tobasco, and a pickled jalapeno pepper. Quite the spicy Mexican drink!


Casa Noble Organic Margarita – Casa Noble’s organic tequila makes this anearth-friendly version of the popular drink used to celebrate Cinqo de Mayo.
