The History of Cinco de Mayo Cinco de Mayo is the remembrance of the victory that the Mexican Army had over the French at the Battle of Puebla. It was one of the few victories that the Mexican people had over the occupying French Army. It was a moral victory mostly, but still holds a solid place in the celebration of Mexico's struggle (and ultimate victory) for independence.
Mexican Breakfast Options Sure, you can always have refried beans on a tortilla and call it breakfast. Many do and they should know. But there's a whole country full of Mexican breakfast dishes and only so many mornings in life. Go for some variety and add a little spice to life, Mexican style.
Mexican Food - Diverse, Varied, and Delicious Mention Mexican food and most people will instantly think of tacos or burritos. But just as Mexico itself is a rich and diverse culture composed of elements from the centuries, so is Mexican cuisine equally varied.
Healthy Mexican Food Choices Mexican food has the reputation for being high fat and high calorie. Some of that reputation may be deserved. A single beef and cheese chimichanga is about 445 calories and is high in sodium and fat. Even a small taco is around 400 calories and can be high in fat, especially when laden with sour cream.
Mexican Cheeses add Authenticity to Mexican Dishes Mention cheese and most people will think of France, maybe Italy, sometimes Germany or Greece. But rarely will the first image brought to mind be Mexico. Yet Mexico has a range of native cheeses that are delightful and even profoundly fine additions to the cheese world.
