CONTINUE READINGSalsa Roja
Salsa roja is a staple in Mexican cuisine and rightfully so. It is so flavorful, bright, and delicious drizzled on all the things. Growing up there was always a salsa roja on the table for whatever meal it may have been. My abuelita always made sure there were plenty of options and knew we all had preference on what kind of salsa we wanted. Her salsa roja was always so dang good and I could never understand why or how. Until now. She always roasted the veggies for her salsas. Ok, maybe not always but definitely most of the time. The flavor was so ridiculously good and the little specks of roasted burnt pieces of the veggies really made it special.
CONTINUE READINGBacon Goat Cheese Burgers with Caramelized Onions
If there is something we love in our household it is goat cheese. These Bacon Goat Cheese Burgers with Caramelized Onions are seriously so good!! It starts with the most perfectly seasoned and flavorful burgers. They’re then topped with a layer of goat cheese, some crispy bacon, and perfectly caramelized onions. You know me though, I have to add some grilled jalapenos for a little kick. Completely optional but highly recommended. The goat cheese and caramelized onions take these burgers to the next level. Think a good pub burger but kind of fancy, maybe even bougie? The thing is, these are no ordinary caramelized onions. No way, Jose! They are caramelized with a but of balsamic vinegar for a deeper, more intense flavor. Do it, trust me, it’s worth it.

The flavors from the dried peppers, herbs, and spices used to make the birria are so complex and make for the perfect dipping sauce, or consomé. Yes, you absolutely need to dip these tacos in the sauce, it’s what makes these quesabirria tacos shine!

This Blackberry Bourbon Smash is the perfect drink for this summer. The muddled blackberries give this drink the perfect beautiful pink/purple color. There’s a little lime juice and mint muddled in as well for a slight tang and fresh flavor. The beauty of it is that you can control how sweet you want it a couple of different ways. Add in your favorite sweetener, whether that’s simple syrup, agave, or others, and use the drink topper of choice. What do I mean by drink topper?? After all the ingredients are muddled and shaken to incorporate all the flavors, it gets poured into a glass and topped with club soda, tonic water, ginger beer, or sparkling water. See? So incredibly versatile but always thirst quenching and delicious!

CONTINUE READINGGrowing up Mexican-American
Am I Mexican enough? Am I American enough? Can you relate to this feeling of wanting to blend in and be enough of something? Growing up Mexican-American I was always fortunate to be part of two cultures at once. My first language was Spanish and I will forever be grateful of this. My second language is English and in reality this is the main language in my life. Does that mean Spanish is less and my Mexican heritage isn’t as important?! No way, Jose. (Also my grandpa’s name is Jose so there’s that…)
