Layered Mexican Dip with Baked Lime Chips
Very Good 4.5/5

My dip has all the flavor of the original, but it's much easier on the waistline. I prefer to eat this "dip" with a fork or raw vegetables.

Mexican Corn Soup
Very Good 4.4/5

Corn shares the spotlight with chicken in this well-seasoned soup. Blending part of the corn with the broth is a really simple and easy way to thicken up the soup and boost the flavor.

Very Good 4.6/5

Similar concept to another recipe of mine, and other popular recipes on this site, but this recipe uses low sodium ingredients, and is still very tasty! I freeze leftovers in small microwaveable containers, and place them back in the refridgerator the day before I want to reheat them.

Mole is usually very time-consuming to make, but this is a much easier version that cooks itself! Peanut butter is an easy stand-in for the usual array of ground nuts and seeds.

Seriously EASY and tasty flour tortillas. Take the time to prepare them, be patient with the food and with yourself, and you'll have really awesome wraps for a sandwich :) Having a cast iron tortilla pan works nicely, as does the ability to roll sticky dough into the thickness of a traditional crepe.
