Hi
Cinco de Mayo (May 5th) commemorates a regional Mexican military battle, but has evolved to become an important celebration of Mexican culture in the United States.
To help you get ready we've rounded up some of our favorite Cinco de Mayo party recipes... from enchiladas and guacamole to street corn, salsa tacos and even a deliciously fun Margarita Pie.

Quick, easy and filling with loads of flavor.
Beef up your enchiladas with plenty of fresh shredded lettuce, a big dollop of sour cream, chopped fresh onions, more cheese, sliced avocado and … maybe just a little more cheese. Vary your casserole by adding a few black beans or corn to the layers with the chicken mixture.
