Chicken Tacos (or Tostadas) with Green Chile Adobo

Posted on August 3, 2016by Ali1982

These tacos are dear to my heart. You could legitimately call them the “dish of Summer ’16” in our house. They are so flavorful and delicious that I look forward to them every time, and they never disappoint. They are relatively easy to make and can be prepared quickly, especially if you have made the adobo ahead […]

Crispy Corn Tostadas With Chicken, Cheddar & Jalapeños

Posted on August 18, 2013January 17, 2015by Ali1982

Well, this originally was supposed to be a recipe for flautas. However, once I tried rolling up the flautas with the corn tortillas, they immediately began breaking and I knew that no flautas would be made that evening. So, tostadas it was! I just fried the tortillas flat in hot vegetable oil, piled the filling […]

Korean Chicken Tacos

Posted on January 28, 2013January 17, 2015by Ali1982

I cut this recipe out of The New York Times about 4 or 5 years ago and I have been making it ever since. These tacos are amazing and we make them quite frequently. The chicken is sweet and spicy with that caramelized chicken skin that is so delicious. These are tasty as tacos, but […]

LA Style Chimichurri Tacos

Posted on March 27, 2012January 17, 2015by Ali1982

I know you haven’t seen meat on here in a while… After we moved to Michigan we ordered a lot of pepperoni pizza and had a good bit of fried fish and chips. That was fun and all, but lately my body has been telling me “Step Away From The Fatty Stuff!”  We’ve tried some […]

Chickpea & Spinach Tacos with Cotija Cheese & Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

Posted on March 1, 2012January 17, 2015by Ali1982

I know, I seem to be on a tostada kick lately. When I’m in the mood for a vegetarian taco night, I’m now going to have to decide between the jalapeno and lime marinated kale tostadas or these chickpea and spinach tacos/tostadas. They are both delicious. Try them out for yourselves and let me know […]

Jalapeno + Lime Marinated Kale Tostadas

Posted on January 19, 2012January 17, 2015by Ali1982

As I mentioned before, I LOVE KALE. It’s a bright, fresh and welcome vegetable in the midst of a season that can get boring with the staples like potatoes and squash. I also love anything with a crispy corn tortilla. Mix them together, add in some other goodies, and you get these beautiful tostadas that […]
