40 Easy Cinco de Mayo Recipes!
If you are looking for an excuse to celebrate Cinco de Mayo this year, I found 40 easy recipes for you to make! Even if you aren’t going out, you can still celebrate making an easy dinner with all the treats at the table!
When it comes to Cinco de Mayo, it’s been exactly 6 years since I’ve been able to celebrate out with Jordan… alone… and enjoy a margarita.
That was us on our last Cinco de Mayo date night 6 years ago and we weren’t even married yet! We were still living on the Eastern Shore on Alabama’s Gulf Coast. #babies
While I will happily choose Mexican dinners and margaritas any evening, these days we are celebrating Cinco de Mayo at home. But that doesn’t mean we skip our favorite foods, too!
I wanted to share 40 super easy & quick Mexican recipes that will have you ready for this year in no time. And yes, I included dessert (yay!) and some amazing drink recipes for you, momma!
