I love Cinco de Mayo because it gives me an excuse to go all out on my favorite Mexican-inspired recipes.
On the Menu: A pitcher of fruity, fizzy red sangria, a few sauteed sweet plantains, a big bowl of spicy guacamole, salsa verde, fluffy red rice and maybe a zesty lime-scented Fiesta salad - sweet corn cake and some simmering black beans on the side. So delicious and quite healthy as well. No time for a big fuss? That's OK, make one or two recipes: Guac, Salsa and Sangria sipping out on a warm porch around twilight? Simple, perfect!

MMMMmmmmmmmm!!! I too love Mexican food! Sadly I haven't had much of it since going vegan. My favorite were tamales.
