Easy Brisket Enchiladas My life along with my table has become a fusion of Mexico and Texas. Two worlds that sync deliciously together with ease. Many of the flavors of Mexico are enjoyed in Texas and here in South Texas they are considered an obsession. During the Holiday is when the fusion of my worlds is most apparent. My parents have come to expect a bit of spicy Mexico and a bit of sweet Texas. My holiday table is laced with tamales, brisket, pan de polvo, pecan pie, frijoles de olla and kerbey lane inspired gingerbread pancakes. This holiday… Read More
Dulce de Leche Chocolate Chip Cookies
Dulce de Leche Chocolate Chip Cookies Mi carino has been in Waco, Texas for the last two months. My weekends have evolved into an overdose of girl time. There have been countless tea parties, breakfast for every meal, glam make-up sessions and way too many fruity drinks laced with colorful straws. Have I missed mi carino?

So when hubby announced he would be leaving us. I silently shrieked with… Read More
Café con Leche
Café con Leche I got my first job when I was 16 at our local Whataburger. I started off taking orders, was then moved to man the drive thru and ended up behind the grill. And I stayed there, because this 16 yr old could grill a mean burger. I used to work the 5pm-3am shift on Fridays and Saturdays. The crowd was insane. The hours flew by with the football game crowd, people out on dates, friends hanging out, the bar crowd and the people getting off the night shift. These are the days I didn’t mind working….

Pozole Rojo
Pozole Rojo is a flavorful Mexican stew made of pork, ancho chiles, and hominy. Served up steamy alongside a table of toppings this stew is pure comfort. Pardon the interruption, but I had a bit of pesky technical issues. I still have a few loose ends to tie up, but wanted to share a big bowl of comfort with you today. This is New Year’s Day fare, what our family enjoys year after year. To this day I have yet to perfect my mom’s recipe. My mom has this way of making the simplest dishes… Read More

Empanadas de Dulce de Leche y Queso We are ending the year on a sweet note with a wonderful Giveaway from IMUSA. Wishing you a HAPPY, PROSPEROUS and TASTY New Year!!! I was recently sent the new IMUSA empanada maker to test out. I have to admit at first I was skeptical. Four empanadas baked and ready to go in under 15 minutes, really? I am so accustomed to making, rolling, stuffing and baking pan after pan of empanadas. In my house if you’re going to make empanadas, you’re going to make enough for your hermana, tu Tia, la… Read More

There’s nothing like ringing in the New Year with a little bubbly
