FIVE Easy Cinco de Mayo Recipes
Celebrate Cinco de Mayo (May 5th) this year with the following delicious Mexican-inspired recipes – including restaurant-style salsa, homemade flour tortillas, refried beans and more! Enjoy!
1.) Easy Weeknight Enchiladas
These delicious and easy Enchiladas are one of those solid recipes that ends up looking beautiful AND tasting great. I hope your family loves it just as much as mine does!
2.) Yummy Restaurant Style Salsa
Whip up this great tasting homemade restaurant style salsa that takes just minutes when using your blender or food processor. It’s so easy and delicious – you’ll never want store-bought again!
3.) Homemade Flour Tortillas
Making your own flour tortillas at home is surprisingly easy and requires simple and inexpensive ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry! Plus, the homemade version is a million times better than what you’ll find at the store!
4.) Slow Cooker Refried Beans
This delicious recipe is super simple – just toss all the ingredients into your slow cooker, wait a few hours, mash them up and you’re done! These beans taste so yummy and flavorful – I promise you’ll never want to buy canned refried beans again.
5.) Citrus Paloma Cocktail
If you’re looking for a refreshing and unique summer cocktail, try making a Citrus Paloma! This popular tequila-based drink is similar to a Margarita but has a grapefruit fizzy twist. Yum!

For the Enchiladas I buy Cambells Cream of Chicken look it up online and they show you a very easy dinner recipe.
I make these slow cooker refried beans every other week. I throw everything in the crock the night before so I can just turn it on and come home to the beautiful aroma of dinner!
The refried beans look great! We are vegan so we eat a lot of bean dishes. This would fit right in!
Can any one recommend a good homemade soft corn tortilla recipe? I’m gluten free and can’t do flour tortillas. I have been wanting to learn to make my own. It seems like the corn tortillas in the store just fall apart.
I love mexican food and I make below recipes at my home all the time. Baked veg Chimichanga is my favorite.
