Happy Monday!!! Please Stop by Chow and Chatter for a Texas inspired Guest Post featuring yours truly and two great breakfast recipes. Many thanks to Rebecca for the lovely invitation.
Blackberry Buttermilk Pancakes
Seizing the opportunity that everyone was home together my little sis decided to throw her girls’ birthday party during our time together. What I thought was a brilliant idea is she planned a breakfast birthday party. A stress free event counting the 9 kids at the house, this worked perfectly. No getting dressed, pajamas were a must, no rushing out the door, no public place filled with strangers and for sleepy eyed adults a steady stream from fresh pots of strong brewed coffee were on-hand. The menu was kid- friendly “pancakes” fruit filled pancakes topped with even more fruit and warm syrup. For the adults steamy tacos filled… Read More
Chocolate Coconut Bars
I’m almost embarrassed to post these, almost, scratch that I have no shame people, these bars came about for the need to have a quick treat to send with hubby for a work luncheon. Being that they are extremly, embarrassingly easy hasn’t stopped me from making them 5 times since I have been home from vacation. Any event this past week that came up with hubby these beauties were made and quickly cut into bars. The only problem is that I keep leaving small pieces for me, so take into account that I have made these 5 times and add… Read More
Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Jalapenos
I’m back!! How was your weekend? Great I hope. I had a amazing time with my family filled with lots of laughter, new memories, and great food. I love the few times out of the year we get to spend together being that each family is extremely busy and each live in different states. I had a blast watching all the men sitting together in one tiny room having a couple of beers and cracking each other up, seriously do men ever grow up? Too funny. So what do we feed these silly men of ours? Hearty Hearty Hearty…our men can eat. We whipped these stuffed jalapenos up… Read More
Guava-Tequila Glazed Fajitas
Hello my loves. I hope all is well. My sincerest apologies for being completely absent for the last week, but my family is in town and well my heart has been completely occupied with so much dang cuteness. With my nieces, nephews, my brother and sister- really- my heart cannot take so much love and complete joy. My little sister arrived in town last Thursday and just to have her in Texas has been wonderful. Those with kids can understand that dinner with other adults, where cocktails are consumed and food does not need to be cut into smaller pieces…well that in itself almost brought… Read More

Hominy with Cilantro and Lime
Menudo in our house is a cold weather ritual. My mom (momo) would spend hours prepping her ingredients then kept a watchful eye over her pot all night. Any of you who have made menudo know this dish can be quite time consuming. These days the work in cut in half with the tripe being sold in stores pre cut , menudo mixes are sold in the spice isles and various flavors of hominy are now available. None of these quick options were avaiable for my mom, but knowing my mom I doubt she would resort to any of these time savers. In the the morning bolillos, onions, cilantro and limes were placed on… Read More
Fresas Con Crema
Hello my fellow food lovers, how was your weekend? My weekend was tiredly busy- in a good way. It always amazes me how I can be so busy with the girls’, cleaning, washing, picking up (the same toys), cooking only to realize that I have not left the apartment the whole week. It’s sad I know, but my carefree days of my youth are gone. So when Friday rolled around I was ready to escape anywhere and more importantly ready to be fed by a nice waitress who would in no time appear with piping warm trays of food. I have to brag I had the best entomatadas… Read More
