Hola Hola Hola!
Today we’re making salmon sliders! Sliders are one of my favorite things to make in the Summer, and here in Fresno, we’re already experiencing 90 degree heat. Which means Summer has officially arrived.

Would you be surprised if I told you, I probably eat more pasta, than I do tortillas or tacos?
It’s true!
This past year, while I’ve been working on Chicano Bakes, I’ve spent about 10-12 hours each day making sweets cookies and breads, and after a long day of work, I can’t always muster up the energy to make anything time consuming, like guisado for dinner. So more often than not, we’ll have pasta. I like making a quick cacio e pepe (which tbh is just mac and cheese for grown ups), other times I like to make a quick lemon parm sauce that I can toss just about any noodle in. Bucatini and cavatappi are two of my favorite pasta shapes for a saucy sauce, and are perfect for the dish we’re making today.
Hola Hola Hola! Today we’re finally making charred and spicy entomatadas.
I cannot believe it’s taken me five months to share this recipe with you. I started testing this recipe back in December, and was going to post it in January… and then life happened!
Have you had entomatadas before? If you’re not familiar, think of them as being similar to enchiladas, and being related to enfrijoladas, and enmoladas. Entomatadas are essentially tortillas that are lightly fried, dipped in a tomato sauce then stuffed with things like chicken, or shredded cheese and rolled, then topped with fresh lettuce and all sorts of toppings.
Hola Hola!
This week I celebrated my 32nd birthday with a nice steak, a slice of Ina Garten’s Coconut Cake and of course, a good cocktail. Today we’re making a tequila pomegranate spritzer.
Since I live in Central California, and good food is hard to come by, I’ve started using Goldbelly every now and then to have things like pizza from New York, noodle kits from Xi’an Famous Foods, and cake delivered. It can be expensive, but some things are totally worth it, especially if traveling isn’t an option. Ina’s coconut cake is by far the best thing I’ve ordered off Goldbelly. It is a small 6-inch white coconut layer cake with a cream cheese frosting coated in shredded coconut. Now, I’ve ordered cakes from other places like Milk bar, or cupcakes from Sprinkles before and I’ve always been disappointed. The cakes and cupcakes just don’t seem to do well during travel, and always arrive dry and crumbly. My husband and I have been having a slice of cake for the past 5 days, and Ina’s cake is still moist, and tastes just as fresh! This post isn’t sponsored by Goldbelly, but if you ever want to indulge in a good slice of cake, I seriously recommend you try Ina’s coconut cake!
