Spice Up Thanksgiving with a Splash of Margaritas
The holiday season is here and entertaining aint easy. So Patch is looking around Lexington for tips to help make your holidays a little easier, more exciting and extra tasty. Some simply spicy tips from Margaritas will lead us off.
Here are some tips from Martha Leahy, executive chef of Margaritas Mexican Restaurant and the Margaritas of Lexington team:
Appetizer? Try Chorizo Pumpkin Soup: This creamy pumpkin soup will warm you up and fill you up. Chorizo and onion adds texture and the subtle pumpkin flavor melds with the broth to provide you with an unforgettable taste.
Dinner Rolls? Try Bolillos: A crusty bread perfect for tortas. Or serve fresh from the oven with butter. This recipe is very simple to make with only 6 ingredients and minimal kneading.
Yams? Try Camote: Sweet potatoes are native to the tropical areas of Mexico. They differ from yams because they don’t have an orange flesh and a thin, somewhat waxy skin.
Green Bean Casserole? Try Chilied Corn: A delicious way to crank up the flavor in your corn. Surprise your guests with this mouth watering dish, you will never serve plain corn again.
Dessert? Try Capirotada: This dessert is full of texture and flavor. Topped with whipped cream, it is absolutely decadent and rich with flavors of pecans and brown sugar.
