Chorizo Queso Dip
No kidding: Today, I ran into my friend’s mom at the grocery store and, unprompted, she told me that she wants a taco bar and queso fountain at her 50th birthday party this year. With– I quote– “none of that processed cheese shit.” And I was like, “Stephanie, I got you. Check out my blog…
Saucy Spanish Chicken, Chorizo, and Potato Pot
I don’t know what I’ve enjoyed more: soaking up all of the compliments I’ve gotten about this Saucy Spanish Chicken, Chorizo, and Potato Pot, or soaking up all of that sauce with slice after slice of crusty bread. On second thought, I’m totally lying. It’s the sauce, hands down, no contest. I’m in love with it, I want…
Chorizo, Caramelized Onion, and Poblano Sausage Rolls with Creamy Cilantro Dip
I have an almost impressive ability to polish off whole trays of pigs in a blanket in seconds flat. It’s not at all uncommon to catch me lingering by the appetizer spread at a party, eradicating the bite-sized cocktail sausages before anyone else gets an opportunity to enjoy them. I try to be discreet. I try to have…
Pupusa Pizza
Does an ultra-thick homemade corn tortilla that’s stuffed to the gills with melted cheese and griddled until golden brown sound like your idea of nirvana, yes or yes?

Pambazos (Mexican Salsa-Dunked Sandwiches)
I can’t help but pronounce “Pambazos” with a very exaggerated, stereotypical Italian-American accent. Pam-BAAAH-zos! Even though I know that Pambazos are not Italian. Even though I know that they’re named after “pan basso”. Still, it’s pam-BAAAH-zos every time. But what is a Pambazo? It’s a guajillo salsa-dunked sandwich that’s traditionally filled with spicy chorizo and potatoes. In…

Mexican Stuffed Peppers (Chorizo-Stuffed Poblanos), R-R-R-Remix
Do you want to know the absolute worst part of being a food blogger? I hope you said yes; I’m going to assume you said yes. The WORST part of food blogging is that you almost never have the time to make a recipe more than once or twice. Think about it– you spend all…
Chorizo Green Chile Breakfast Skillet
I can usually tell by 8AM what the rest of the day is going to be like. If I only have time for a granola bar or coffee for breakfast, it’s gonna be a struggle. If I have, say, a Chorizo Green Chile Breakfast Skillet, I’m going to spend the rest of the day giddy…
Chorizo Queso Fundido
Give me melted cheese in any form and I’ll probably devour it. Combine it with beer, spicy chorizo, roasted poblanos, garlic, tomatoes, onions, and cilantro, and it doesn’t stand a chance. I’m like a hoover vaccuum when you put Fundido in front of me. Seriously, any semblance of that delicious Mexican dip will be gone…

I remade these Mexican Stuffed Peppers so that they’re better than ever. Check out the new post, recipe, and photos HERE. This past weekend, James and I went to an awesome little barbecue place in his town and pigged out (see what I did there?). It was fantastic, and I’ve definitely been inspired for some future…
