Foodie Friday Fabuloso!


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.
Pizzazzerie

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.

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?

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...
The Feed Feed

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.

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.

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

Mexican Chicken Tortilla Soup
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!

Frozen Margarita
This recipe is included because it is not made with a mix. Most frozen margs are. It sure looks delish!

Chicken & Goat Cheese Enchiladas
Goat cheese adds a sophisticated taste to everything. This dish is really quite simple to make.
Mexican Chocolate Donuts
What a yummy way to start or end Cinco de Mayo! These sinful treats are a beautiful combination of dark chocolate and spice.
