Hi All...

I'm in the middle of organising a mexican food night for some friends and wondered if anyone had any idea's about what I could serve?
My idea's so far: Nacho's with melted cheese
Fajita's with chicken and vegetable for the vegetarians
Enchilades
Salsa, Guacomole and Sour Cream

Would love a pudding idea and any idea for decorations etc

TIA,

Jules x

Do fajitas with quorn pieces for the veggies. I did this for dh one night but didn't tell him. He still to this day thinks it was chicken

nigella does a chocolate and chilli baked pudding which sounds lovely...

otherwise she does margarita ice cream (tequila and countreau IIRC) which would be perfect!!

I assume she meant with chicken for meat eaters, with veg for veggies.

A real genuine mexican dish is mole , chicken with a chocolate and many many spices sauce. In the link chicken mole
theres several recipes to chose from , but it is quite an involved dish. Its possible to may be buy the sauce somwere to add to chicken.

I think some kind of desert of chilli & chocolate would be amazing.
