This week’s post has a collection of typical taco fillings recipes, which my dear friend Pily is sharing with you. She, as well as many families in México, do, celebrates our Independence from Spain with a traditional party with friends and family. Pily’s love for our Mexican food prompted her to start a new blog: “La Cocina Mexicana de Pily”. I am sure you will enjoy these recipes as well as her Blog “ La Cocina de Pily”.

Mexican Tacos Recipes

Hispanic Heritage Month Guest Bloggers Series

For this Independence Day, September 16th, we will have a TAQUIZA, mmmmm!!!!

It is well known that Tacos are a Mexican staple and that it is very easy to prepare different types of fillings to make tacos. These dishes are usually served typical buffet-style, a basket full of hand-made warm tortillas, some fresh made hot salsas, and everyone fixes themselves a taco with the filling of their choice.

This is a very easy way for you to make a Mexican Fiesta at home with your family and friends. The dishes can be prepared ahead of time and just warm up minutes before serving.
I want to dedicate this post to all the Expats living in México, facing a new culture and new food that they want to cook but do not know how to do it… and also to all the Mexicans living abroad (our beloved Paisanos) all over the world, who remember with nostalgia their country and its cuisine….. with much love! Here’s a bit of our country: And, well to everyone that comes to visit this kitchen. Gracias!
Enjoy it!

Poblano Peppers Strips with Cream/Rajas con Crema

Instructions:

Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium-low heat, add the onion and sauté 2 minutes. Stir in the Poblano peppers strips and cook until onion and peppers are tender. Add the cream and stir to combine. Season with the chicken bullion to your liking. A lot of people also add corn kernels, but I prefer it this way. It’s optional if you would like to add the corn.

Pork rinds in a red Sauce/Chicharrón guisado en salsa roja

Note: If you can find Pressed Pork (Chicharron prensado) you can use it instead of pork rinds.

Instructions:

Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the pork rinds. Sauté for about 3 minutes.
Place the tomatoes, peppers, and garlic in your blender. Puree and add to the pork rinds, stir into coat until cooked through. Season with salt. (Please check the ingredients list below)
This delicious dish is my favorite… you can use pork meat with the same sauce. Like ribs cooked in a pressure cooker…. It tastes Fantastic!
