Avocado Crema
When we are having friends over, we like to create a menu that allows our guests to pick and choose what they want to eat. Recently, we had our friends Kaitlyn and Aaron over for arepas.

Beer Braised Instant Pot Shredded Chicken
During the fall and winter months, it is so comforting at night to have a warm cooked meal on the table. The problem with that is we don’t always have the time to be in the kitchen for hours on the weeknight. This recipe helps bring both together by giving you a delicious meal that…

Spicy Enchiladas
The other night we were craving Mexican food and enchiladas was one of the first things that came to mind. Enchiladas are not normally on our menu rotation and we thought this was a fun way to mix up our routine. This recipe is a bit homemade and a bit store bought. By using pre-made…

Soft Scrambled Breakfast Quesadillas with Avocado Crema
Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone! We know this year isn’t the margarita bar crawl that we thought it would be, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do a little to celebrate and have some fun in quarantine. We love a good breakfast situation and thought that breakfast quesadillas are a great, low key way to…

Elote (Grilled Mexican Street Corn)
Whether you’ve always been a big Cinco de Mayo celebrator in the past, this year we feel like we need to celebrate all the things while in quarantine. It helps us break up the monotony of daily life at the house and helps remind us there is a real world beyond isolation that is worth…
