Cinco de Mayo is this Sunday. That calls for a recipe roundup. Today we are talking margaritas and guacamole. They are a delicious duo, and one of my favorites.

It's Cinco De Mayo, so of course, we must celebrate with a margarita (or two), and some fabulous Mexican recipes. We at Shop This headquarters enjoy cooking Mexican meals any day of the week.  Here's a recipe roundup of fabuloso food. Olé.

Smoking Blackberry Sage Margarita 
Just when you think a margarita is good enough on its' own, enter the smoking type. I have had one without the blackberry. It not only was delicious, but oh so fun, too.

Lobster Tacos with Green Onion Cilantro Sauce

This recipe is my pick of the round up. I also think that it could be my "last meal" wish. It has a good deal of ingredients, but so worth it!

Peach Mango Salsa

If you don't make your own salsa, you are missing out on some fabulous freshness. This recipe with the sweetness of the fruit, the zest of the citrus, and spice from the Jalapeno must be a so good.

Strawberry Hibiscus Ginger Margarita

The most important part of any Mexican meal....a really good margarita! This one is a beauty, and quite unique. It's made with hibiscus tea of all things! You can buy dried hibiscus at Amazon

The Best Guacamole You Ever Had

Well, that's saying a lot, isn't it? But this recipe has a "secret sauce" or ingredient which is Worcestershire sauce! And to add a little crunch, there is bacon. Let's not forget the chopped onions, tomatoes, hot sauce, lime and more. I think this recipe sounds like a winner.

Well Plated

Mexican Street Style Jalapeño Dip

I think that I have mentioned before, I am not a fan of serving dips to a crowd. All of that double dipping! But I would certainly prepare this for my family. It's siad to be smoky, spicy, and very special.

Half Baked Harvest

Baja Fish Tacos

The coating on the fish is said to be the secret to this winning recipe. It stays crispy from the first bite to the last. It looks so fresh, doesn't it?

Spoon Fork Bacon

Cilantro Lime Rice

Isn't this a pleasantly presented dish? It's true, we eat with our eyes, and I am digging in. Why would anyone eat plain white rice again, when you can have this?

Pineapple Mezcal Cocktail

I recently watched Mezcal being made on a CNN special. It's fascinating. The process is why it has such a smoky flavor. If you wish to know more about the differences between Mezcal and Tequila, HERE is a good source. You'll find the cocktail recipe at...

Taco Salad

This is how I eat tacos. No tortilla unless I am at a Frontera Grill in Chicago where they are warm, homemade, and fabuloso! This recipe doesn't miss a beat.

How Sweet Eats

Dulche de Leche Cheesecake
This recipe creates a creamy cheesecake that is both sweet and salty. The perfect combination for desert in my book. The dulche de luche is sweet like caramel sauce. The longer it cooks, the richer it becomes.

Nourished Endeavors

Low Carb Fish Taco Bowls
It's made with Mahi Mahi but I am sure you could substitute your favorite white flaky fish.

My favorite soup! It might be all of the fixings that finds me loving it. This is a relatively easy recipe. Give it a try!

Tres Leches Cake

The name of this cake means three milks. And true to the name, three different types of milk get poured over this butter cake. Serve it chilled with lots of whipped cream. Love the individual servings.
