Ground Chicken Enchiladas
Creamy enchiladas using ground chicken instead of shredded. A big hit in our house!
The Perfect Blended Margarita
This blended margarita recipe proves you don't need to purchase a pre-made margarita mix to make a perfect margarita. I prefer mine straight up, but you can add salt to the rim if you like.
Air Fryer Shrimp Tacos
Tender, flavorful shrimp with a slightly caramelized outside and a wonderful coating of tart/creamy/herbal cilantro-lime butter. The warmed flour tortillas are hefty enough to hold the filling without tearing, but if people prefer corn tortillas, they will need two so the filling doesn't make the tortilla tear. Serve tacos with lime wedges.
