Our family believes in the power of food, and its ability to gather loved ones around the table; but this recipe reminds us that food is also a way to remember and honor loved ones who came before us.
We share this Taco Salad in memory of Carol, Kristen’s mom, who taught her “that love has no limitations, family is who you love, the earth is for us to respect and nurture so that it can give back to us, a smile can mean the world to someone so always look people in the eye and smile, wave to people you do not know, and never ever take anything for granted.”
Thank you, Kristen, for sharing your family’s story with us. We’re honored to be at the table as you remember your loved one, and share this with nostalgic recipe with the rest of your Siete familia. Juntos es Mejor.

The fun of making these Loaded Chocolate Churros lies in—aside from the obviously delicious chocolate + churro combo—the toppings! We used a variety of dried fruits and nuts to top ours, but feel free to top these with everything your heart desires. Chip chip, churr’ay!
There’s nothing that can’t be made a little bit better by a hearty casserole. How do we know? Because we’ve seen it in all the movies! We’ve made this Fuego Rice Casserole using our Grain Free Tortilla Chips for a kick of heritage-inspired flavor.
The dips table at our family carne asadas is an array of different flavors! From guacamole and pico de gallo to queso and salsa, we’ve got something for everyone. One dip we especially like to make is this Cilantro Spinach Artichoke Dip. We think you’ll like it too!
