                                                                Carne Asada quesadillas are loaded with delicious grilled carne asada steak and cheese and to make things even better there is a avocado-lime sauce for dipping. The steak gets a ton of flavor from the marinade. You will want the steak to marinade for at least 6 hours to allow the flavor to develop. Once the steak has finished marinating it is grilled and sliced and then used to make the quesadillas on the stovetop. If you want you could grill the quesadillas as well and not use the stove at all. The avocado-lime sauce is delicious for dipping or you could use it as a spread when preparing the quesadillas. Enjoy.

This recipe does require a little bit of work to prepare all of the ingredients but it is delicious. The chicken is prepared in the slow cooker with taco seasoning and salsa. The Pico de Gallo is just a simple combination of tomato, cilantro, jalapeno, onion, salt, and lime juice. The lime rice gets a lot of flavor from cilantro and fresh lime juice. To make things even better these burritos are rolled up and then grilled in a pan to help the cheese and add a little crunch. Enjoy.

This is an amazing dish to prepare as a side dish to go with pretty much any type of meat. I decided to prepare seasoned boneless pork chops to go with this dish. The process to preparing this casserole is simple—just combine all of the ingredients (except for a little bit of the cheese) in a large bowl and then place the mixture into a baking dish, top with the remaining cheese and bake to perfection! Enjoy.

The chicken is first stuffed with the ingredients, then fried in the pan and placed into the oven to finish the cooking process. This dish is great to serve for dinner and is not very difficult to prepare at all. I like to serve this stuffed chicken caprese with wild rice. Enjoy.

This recipe is so easy to prepare and only consists of eggs, chicken and kettle chips. You can use different flavored kettle chips to make this chicken dish taste different every time. I have only tried a couple of flavors but my favorite so far is BBQ. Best of all, the chicken is baked and not fried. You can crush the kettle chips by placing them in a ziplock bag and crushing them with a rolling pin. You can also put them into a food processor. The chicken is dipped first in the beaten egg and then rolled in the kettle chips and then baked in the oven. I like to serve this recipe with rice. Enjoy.

If you have never had this appetizer at Chili’s, it is basically breaded fried chicken coated with a ginger-citrus sauce and then served with a wasabi ranch dressing. These wings have an Asian flavor to them. The sauce gets a lot of its flavor from fresh ginger, soy sauce, lemon juice, and lime juice. If you want to save some time to buy breaded boneless wings from the store and coat them with the sauce. For the Wasabi-ranch dressing, green food coloring is optional. This is another great recipe for the Super Bowl. Enjoy.

                                                                                                    This refried bean dip is an excellent appetizer to prepare for parties. This dip is very easy to make and tastes delicious. The dip is served hot and baked in the oven. A lot of the flavor comes from taco seasoning. Preparing this dip is very easy, refried beans are mixed with taco seasoning, sour cream, and cream cheese and then placed into a baking dish and topped with shredded cheese and baked to perfection. You can top this with delicious taco ingredients if you want such as lettuce, tomato, and black olives. Serve with tortilla chips. Enjoy.

This is more of an idea than a recipe and is perfect to serve for your Super Bowl party. Waffle fries are topped with mozzarella cheese and pepperoni and then served with pizza sauce. If you want you can put the sauce right on the fries before the cheese but I like my fries crispy so I used the sauce for dipping. No frying is required just bake the fries in the oven and then top with pizza ingredients. Enjoy.
