Even if you hadn’t planned on traveling this month, you probably wish you at least had that option. The good news is that even though you might be stuck at home, you don’t have to be bored by doing the same old thing every day.
Other than activities and adventures, for me a very important aspect of any vacation is the food! Whether it’s ethnic and authentic to the region you’re visiting or a new and different preparation of foods you are familiar with, one very simple thing you can do to get that spring-break feeling and flavor (pun intended!) at home is to pull out some super tasty and tropical recipes! You can give yourself the “spring-break” feeling you so very much need and deserve by incorporating these 2 great Mexican-inspired tapas into your menu for the week:
-
Saigon Skillet Street Corn -- This spin on Mexican Street Corn is a real crowd pleaser; with a little bite and sweetness, it'll be gobbled up in no time! The Saigon Street Sauce is an exceptional balance of heat and sweet roasted garlic flavor. This mustard based pepper sauce harmonizes well with anything you might throw on the grill. https://bit.ly/31LmOtN
- Chicken Flautas -- Fried to a beautiful golden brown crisp, these “flutes” are the perfect finger food for any meal. Dip into some warmed Calabrian Pepper & Sweet Tomato Fennel Spread. Everyone loves to dip! https://bit.ly/2Pt2I55
Oh, to leave the everyday, to lie on a beach taking in the sun, to have a glass of wine or a margarita on a terrace overlooking the market below. We may be a long way from this exact scenario, but making and serving these yummy tapas at least maybe makes the at-home experience feel a little less “at-home.” Happy spring “travels” (even if it’s only to the kitchen 😉) from all of us at Bellisari’s!
