“Easy to put together, this salad is low cal and low fat. No mayo or sour cream. Serve with saltine crackers, baked tortilla chips or tostadas. I like to add a chopped jalapeno (canned) or a good splash of Mexican hot sauce (Tapatio is very good). Adjust the amount of veggies and citrus juice to your taste. This also packs well for lunches as long as it’s kept cold.”

I began cooking as a kid with my mom. I cook mostly Mexican food, but my best recipes are the ones that I improvise at the last minute! Especially desserts, which I love to cook, but always forget to write down.
I’m a stay at home mom of three kids- 2 boys (3 & 5years old) and a 1 year old baby girl. My husband and I have been married for nearly 8 years.
I want to take a moment to thank all of you who have made my recipes and even took the time to review and/or photograph them. I appreciate every one of them!
