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 Steak Panchos! 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.

Bring these Jalapeño Poppers to your next backyard asada, and we guarantee everyone will be jalap-eño business! All you need are jalapeño peppers for the base, a mix of cream cheese and our Jalapeño Botana Sauce for the filling, and our Sea Salt Maíz Totopos Corn Tortilla Chips for a crunchy topping. Our familia serves these to snack on while we wait for our proteins and veggies to finish grilling!

When our familia thinks “backyard asadas,” we think “fajitas.” And because we like to have options for everyone at the table, we make a large variety of fajita-style proteins and veggies—like the chicken fajitas in this recipe—with lots of tortillas on the side to make tacos! Wrapped in a warm Grain Free Chickpea Flour Tortilla and topped with our fresh salsa made with Habanero Botana Sauce, our Chicken  Achiote Tacos pack a whole lot of flavor in each bite.

Our familia’s gatherings feature a lineup of many dips, but one that is an absolute must is Guacamole! We added grilled corn, serrano peppers, onion, and cilantro to our classic guac recipe for a kick of flavor, zest, and just a little spice. Now all that’s left to do is rip open a bag of Maíz Totopos Corn Tortilla Chips and dip, crunch, repeat!

Our Salsa Roja is mild-heat, creamy, and gets its vibrant red color from guajillo chiles and fresh tomatoes. Pair it with crispy tortilla chips for dipping (might we suggest our new Maíz Totopos Corn Tortilla Chips or Grain Free Tortilla Chips?), or drizzle it on top of your favorite meals—like tacos and burritos—for an extra bit of flavor and mild spice!

Just in ques-o you’re looking for something to serve with our new Maíz Totopos Corn Tortilla Chips, one of our familia’s favorites is this Vegan Cashew Queso! It’s got a whole lot of flavor from roasted tomatoes, green chilis, and a variety of seasonings, plus it’s vegan so that everyone can get a taste.

Do you like simple, easy-to-make salsas? If so, our  Salsa Cruda has already got your name on it! Simply blend your fresh ingredients—like tomatoes, onions, and cilantro—together to make this light and mild salsa (and serve with your favorite Maíz Totopos)!
