Hey guys – we’re back! We had some things going on that we needed to tend to as a family, and even took a quick trip to Sunriver (aka our favorite place on earth), to unplug a bit…and it was so good for us.
But now, we’re back, and in time for Cinco de Mayo! YAY! This may be my favorite holiday! Make sure you check out our insanely huge long list of Mexican-style Recipes that you can make for Cinco de Mayo on Wednesday.
Speaking of Cinco de Mayo…can anyone else believe that we made it to May??? Weren’t we all just experiencing the big freeze of 2021 in February?
Enough with that, here’s what’s on the menu this week!
Polynesian Chicken
This ultra-simple, super-fast recipe for Polynesian Chicken is one of our busy week night go-to favorites! Five ingredients, 30 minutes, and so much flavor!
Swiss Chicken Dinner
Cheesy, crunchy, moist perfect chicken! An elegant dish without all the work, but with all of the flavor.
Carne Asada Tacos
A bit like a slow cooker recipe without the slow cooker, these carne asada street tacos cook low and slow in a dutch oven until they are absolutely irresistible!
Lemon and Pea Alfredo
This Lemon and Pea Alfredo is an Italian summer pasta dream come true! Bright, fresh, nutty, creamy, and tangy, it's flavor-forward in the best possible way.
Carbonara Pizza
This carbonara pizza recipe is easy, quick, and inexpensive, with some strategic substitutions! Eggs, cheese, and bacon - how can you go wrong?
Basil Garlic Burgers
These Basil Garlic Burgers are easy to make and packed with flavor! Plus, when you serve them on an English muffin, they are cute and fun to eat!
Easy Eggs Benedict
Just as good today as it apparently was at the Waldorf Hotel 120 years ago - just easier now - you've got to whip up this easy eggs benedict recipe!
Tres Leches Cake
This Tres Leches cake, while perfect for Cinco de Mayo (or just because), is one of those cakes that is easy to make and can also easily be made several days in advance. In fact, making it one day in advance even makes the cake taste better!
I didn’t want to overwhelm you with all Mexican Recipes this week which is why I linked to our recipe archive above. But if you’re still looking for more, I’ve got a whole Pinterest Mexican Food board for you to check out! Go on, there’s a ton there!
I hope you all have a great first week of May and eat a lot of tacos!
