Needless to say, I have quite the collection of Cinco de Mayo ready recipes and drinks that will help you celebrate. Here are some of my Favorite Recipes to Make for Cinco de Mayo...or any day for that matter!

My absolute favorite way to make guacamole for a crowd, or just for the four of us, loaded with fresh ingredients and topped with salty cotija cheese, cilantro and plenty of lime. Absolutely addictive!
