Some go for gold, but we go for green! (Especially when it comes to this easy after-school meal topped with our Green Enchilada Sauce and Salsa Cremosa.

What did the quesadilla say to the Salsa Cremosa? “¡Buenos 'dillas!” Get it? Because it’s always a great day when you’ve got a quesadilla and a side of our NEW Salsa Cremosa for dipping!

Our NEW Spicy Salsa Roja is for anyone who's looking to add a kick of flavor and heat to their favorite meals. And one of our familia's favorite meals is Huevos Rancheros because it reminds us of our hometown, Laredo! So we added our very own Spicy Salsa Roja to give the dish that extra bit of home-cooked, heritage-inspired flavor.

Our NEW Mild Salsa Roja is part of our Casera-Style line (which means, “homemade”), so it felt only fitting that we pair it with a recipe that reminds us of home, too: Migas Tacos! Growing up, migas was our mom's go-to recipe because it was simple to make at home, delicious, and full of flavor. We'd top ours with lots of salsa and wrap it all up in a warm tortilla. ¡Buen provecho!

To prepare these delicious Chile Lime Preparados (get it?) we used our new Chile Lime Puff Snacks, fresh cabbage, tomatoes, and cucumbers topped with dairy free crema and Traditional Botana Sauce.  It’s a refreshing, heritage-inspired flavor combo that’s easy to assemble and great for summer snacking!

Our familia loves enjoying our Grain Free Puff Snacks “preparados.” (This means topped with various salty, tangy, and sour toppings!) Here, we’ve made Fuego Puff Snacks Preparados topped with pickles and Traditional Botana Sauce for a kick of spice and tang. It’s dill-icious! 🔥 

Just in ques-o you’re craving queso, we’ve got you covered: Queso Puff Snacks with Cashew Queso and Elotes! We grew up enjoying “corn in a cup,” elotes, and puff snacks, so we thought, “why not throw ‘em all together?” This recipe is your sure fire way of trying several snack shop favorites all at once!

Crema is a thick, rich, and creamy condiment that's used to add a tangy brightness to dishes such as enchiladas, soup, and tacos, and it can also help dial down the heat. Because our family is dairy-free, we make our crema from cashews. We know making crema from nuts might sound a little crazy, and it is -- crazy good.

If you ask us, sorbet goes best with chamoy on top! So we made this Cucumber Lime Sorbet using only cucumbers, agave syrup, lime juice, and salt and topped it with our Chamoy Botana Sauce. It's fresh, easy to make, and perfect for the summer months! Pro-tip: Keep large batches stored in your freezer for a quick, cool, and delicious summertime snack.

What's Shrimp Aguachile, you ask? It's a seafood dish that's usually made with lime and chile marinated shrimp—a light & refreshing recipe that's our go-to when the summer months roll around. Imagine a spread of aguas frescas, fruit salsas, guac, and of course, this Shrimp Aguachile for dipping your Maíz Totopos in or scooping on top of tostadas (...now we're hungry!). Try this recipe and you'll see, it's "shrimp-ly the best!"

Walking Tacos are our Siete familia's go-to summer snack! We simply cut open a bag of our favorite chips (we used our Grain Free Sea Salt Tortilla Chips!) and pile 'em high with all of our favorite taco fillings like Vegan Charro Beans and Jalapeño Botana Sauce. It's a snack that reminds us of summer days, sports games, and backyard asada celebrations. Plus, it's the perfect single-serving snack in our 1 oz bags, too!

After a backyard asada, our family has leftovers for the whole week! One way we like to use our leftover fajitas (aside from tacos, of course) is Sheet Pan Fajitas Nachos. We pile cheese, fajitas, fajita veggies, Traditional Botana Sauce, and your crema of choice on top of our Sea Salt Maíz Totopos and bake for best results—and by, “best results,” we mean cheese pulls on cheese pulls on cheese pulls!

Marg’ our words: You’ll want to bring this Chamoy Margarita recipe to your next backyard asada. It’s a quick and easy recipe that makes enough for 8, so everyone can enjoy! P.S. Feel free to leave out the tequila for an equally delicious sweet and tangy mocktail featuring our Chamoy Botana Sauce.
