In the wake of Cinco De Mayo, I’ve been thinking about how many delicious, nourishing, and ‘ready for Summer’ meals originate from Mexico. 

Seeing as we can’t visit Mexico right now and go right to the source, I was inspired to put together a list of some healthy Mexican-inspired recipes to satisfy the cravings for fun in the sun and guacamole. 

Farmer’s Market Veggie Enchiladas

An old favourite, but packed with fresh veggies for an extra boost of goodness.


Pico de Gallo

What would a Mexican-inspired feast be without this classic? 


Easy Mexican Inspired Stuffed Peppers

A vegan and gluten-free way to enjoy these flavours. 


Guacamole Three Ways

Enjoy this mouth-watering staple spiced up three different ways. 


Easy Shrimp Fajitas

On the table in 30 mins, without sacrificing any flavour!


Pork Tacos with Mango Salsa

Pork is cooked in a slow cooker for tenderness to match the mango. However, I do recommend making your own mango salsa.


Cheesy Green Chile Chimichangas

This recipe uses an air fryer. 


Ceviche 

Fresh fish, lime, cilantro, I’m drooling. This is a great appy or light meal. 


Southwestern Quinoa Mason Jars

Great for a packed lunch. 


Cilantro Lime Rice

Delicious as a side or burrito filling.


And for dessert… Steal Tacofino’s Famous Diablo Cookie recipe.
