if you have been to my house, you might have noticed i have a little problem with too many cookbooks. i will admit it, but i am far from getting into a program to help me quit. every time i get a new cookbook, i will curl up with it that evening like i would a novel…

monterey jack & goat cheese queso fundido with hatch green chile vinaigrette
these days, life is a little crazy. we have two little ones and a very busy schedule. somehow we, well i, got away from one of my dearest loves: entertaining/taking care of people in our home. the house is often a mess and i get stressed over the day and sometimes it’s just too much…
mexican style roasted corn-on-the-cob
i haven’t always been the corn-on-the-cob’s number one fan, you might say. i like my corn to have a little sumthin’ goin’ on, if you know what i mean. so there i was, looking for a summer corn recipe that would light my fire. then the lights shone down from heaven and lit up this…
creamy baked chicken taquitos

chicken enchiladas – red sauce version
oh, enchiladas! where would we be in life without enchiladas!? i would be in a sad, dark place for sure. now usually you’ll find chicken enchiladas with a verde or tomatillo sauce, which is what i always order at any mexican restaurant. but these are such a lovely departure from the standard. and oh so…
rice and corn with cilantro & avocado
this side dish makes me so happy, i’d probably eat it for the main course. it is light, refreshing, and the perfect thing to go with anything on the grill. it’s ingredients lean southwestern and mexican, so it goes really well with chips & fresh salsa or a big cheesy plate of enchiladas. i even…
