Cinco De Mayo Recipe Round Up
Happy almost Cinco de Mayo! Even though most of us probably aren’t Mexican, I don’t think anyone would really turn down an excuse to eat Mexican cuisine. I know I’ve been craving chicken enchiladas (and finally made some this past weekend from Bon Appetit). Today I gathered up a bunch of Mexican recipes, both traditional and twists on classics, in one spot for your reference. Even if it’s not Cinco de Mayo, this round up is a great place for menu planning when you’re in the mood for Mexican food.
