What is mexican: Definition and 93 Discussions

The mexican chicken lasagna calls for 3 cups of cooked chicken. How many pounds/breasts is that? My husband and I buy our meat in bulk at Sams and then vacuum seal and freeze it. I'm making it and need to know how much to thaw. Also...can I just cook them in the DCB prior to making the...

My host wants to do a Mexican Theme Show and we were trying to brainstorm some kind of contest?? Similar to Slippers and Sangria - wear the cutest slippers, Sandals and Sangria - same thing, Ugliest Spatula.... Any ideas???

Doing one in a week for approx 10-12 people. Most of the recipes I am finding feed 6-8; any ideas? Any particular recipes that have been successful doubling?

I'm getting ready for my first show! I'm going to make fajitas and the pass-around pineapple salsa. I am borrowing the salad choppers from my recruiter. My show is a co-worker and there will be a few people from work coming - so I offered to bring a dessert that I plan on making ahead at...

I am doing this recipe for the first time for a show tomorrow night. Anyone have any tips/pointers to share with me?

I have a guest looking for the recipe for "Mexican Pizza"? Before I look really stupid and ask her for more details, was just wondering if the more seasoned PCers here knew of what Mexican Pizza recipes we have/had. So far, I've only found a "Fabulous Fajita Pizza" in my 'All the Best'...

I'm planning to do it at a show on Thursday, so I made it over the weekend for my family - my husband said it wasn't the usual "show-stopper" recipes I normally do at shows - something about a casserole not being that dramatic. I always take his advice, but then I'm doing a show for a bunch...

Can this be at all prepared ahead???

I saw an invite (full page) for the Mexican Margarita Invitation on Chefsuccess, however, I opened it once, and now can't seem to get it to open, it just makes a tab and I get no where with trying to open it. Does anyone have one out there, or if you could possibly send it to me? Not quite...

I've looked but haven't found anything referring to this. I currently do not have the DCB, so will it still turn out ok if I cook the mexican chicken lasagna in the rectangular baker and cover with foil? This is for home, not a show, but wanted to make sure it would work still. Has anyone...

We made this at a cluster meeting a few months ago and had problems using the new saute tongs for dipping the tortillas (they kept tearing) and wound-up using our fingers. What do ya'll do for this step?

Anyone want to share their family's favorite Mexican recipes (they don't have to be PC ones). I know our meeting is that night and that is the theme. looking for a new yummy recipe we eat Mexican about once a week so I'm looking for some new recipes (I use allrecipes and the other websites...

My day care provider is having a show for me. She has 16 coming. Here is my current menu: Mexican lasagne molten lava cake mini mexican corn bread (premade the night before) chips and pineapple salsa I am afraid this is not going to be enough food. I also need an alcoholic drink for the...

I have a hostess that wants to do mexican appetizers. What ideas do you all have? I can come up with main dishes and desserts, but no appetizers.

I am making Mexican Lasagna for a show on Monday. The host wants to make a dessert also. What dessert would you suggest using the new consultant kit? She will make the dessert before the show.

and he then proceeded to tell me that I better not try any of it!!! As he wanted to keep it all to himself!!!! He tells me things are terrible when it becomes his new favorite meal! This is the easiest meal to make. We didn't have any tortilla chips so we just put some Fritos on the...

How do you translate the DCB recipes to the oven? My microwave is too small!!! :(

I've heard alot of consultants on various training CDs in the last year talk about the Mexican Margarita show. It sounds like a good one to have on hand. I actually thought about because one of my potential hosts is taking her GRE in March...I was thinking about proposing the Margarita theme...

What is the oven temp and time to bake :chef:

Another thumbs up! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: I made it for the first time at my show last night (all friends so I wasn't too worried). The host's sister can have flour so she was concerned about the tortillas and asked if I could use corn ones...I said, "Of course, the recipe calls for...

Please understand that I was in NO WAY trying to say anything about Mexican citizens that was unkind. I was just trying to share that here in California we have SO MANY drains on our economy from "undocumented aliens" that this woman's 14 kids wouldn't even begin to make a dent. And I am so...

This is from the new 29 Minutes to Dinner Vol. 2 cookbook! It's VERY yummy! I did make a few slight changes, but nothing extreme. I didn't have any corn on the cob so I used 2 cups of frozen corn thawed. I also did not have any of our Chipotle Rub, so I used some Mrs. Dash Chipotle spice I...

I need to take something for a pot luck on Saturday and would love to try one of the new recipes. Was thinking either the Grilled Chicken Penne Al Fresco or the Mexican Chicken Lasagna... I would need to be able to double them... does anyone know whether either of these could be doubled in the...

Sounds like the Mex las is a big hit...and I wonder how it has gone over with your kids? My DS is 12 but very picky, so I am always on the lookout for food that he might eat. He likes tacos. Thanks!

I tried the recipe today....it was very easy to assemble...has anyone else tried it? I was thinking of making this for my shows on thurs. and Fri since they have seen every other recipe for the baker... It didn't seem to have much flavor..I used the regular Enchalada sauce (mild) because that...

Hey there...just sharing... I tried this recipe EXACTLY as listed. Family thought it was a bit blaw (using jarred, dry cilantro). Tried it with FRESH cilantro...still blaw. Third time was a charm... Used: Fresh cilantro, used more cheese, added 1 & 1/2 tablespoons of...

Is the Mexican Chicken Lasagna in the new SBRC? If it is, would someone mind posting it? - SOUNDS DELISH! :love:

our cluster's Christmas party is on Monday. It's a Mexican Fiesta theme. The want me to bring either a green salad or a dessert. Can you think of something more Mexican inspired to go with that? I was going to make a torte, but remembered the Mexican theme. Now I'm not sure what to make.

I'm making a flyer that outlines all the shows I'm offering this season. I want to offer a "Mexican Fiesta" theme with various recipes to choose from. I know for sure I want to put down fajitas in the dcb, slap yo mama margaritas and triple-citrus mojitos. What else?? What is your tried and true...

I have a new booking who wants a Mexican and Mojito theme and I can't find any recipes that I can download. I also wanted to make themed invitation flyers. I'm new at this and this will be my first show so any tips from you pros will be greatly appreciated!!!
