The Perfect Mexican Foods for the Holiday Season
Can you believe that Christmas is just around the corner? It feels like 2017 has come and gone so fast that sometimes it’s hard to believe it’s not still 2016. So as we ring in the new year, why not celebrate with some delicious Mexican food? These dishes, which can all be made with delicious Mexican meat from Productos Real, are perfect for the winter weather and holidays.
Dish #1: Chilaquiles
Chilaquiles is a popular dish and since it’s best served hot, it’s the perfect dish for winter. Chilaquiles is made from corn tortillas cut into squares and usually marinated in a chili sauce. Many people choose to add cheese, Mexican meat, and onions. Our chile colorado sauce at Productos Real makes for the perfect chilaquiles dish.
Dish #2: Menudo
Menudo is a Christmas mainstay in many cultures. Menudo is a kind of meat, typically beef stomach, that is added to a red chile broth, and mixed with hominy and other fixings, such as onions and oregano. This dish tastes great, is flavorful, and can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Plus, it’s nice and warm, making it the perfect treat for those chilly winter mornings. At Productos Real, we distribute tripe, which is the Mexican meat used in menudo. It’s delicious and will make any chef happy.
Dish #3: Tamales with Chile Colorado
What’s Christmas without a nice, warm batch of tamales? Tamales are often referred to as the hardest Mexican food dish to prepare, but if you do choose to prepare them, it can make for great family-bonding time. Tamales can be made with beef, pork, chicken, and green chiles and cheese. You can even make them with a twist by adding our infamous chile colorado sauce to the meat.
Dish #4: Chorizo and Eggs (Breakfast)
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so why not do it right with a chorizo and egg combination? This can be enjoyed in burritos, omelets, and even by itself. Our chorizo at Productos Real is delicious, hearty, and full of flavor, making it the perfect treat for breakfast.
And Don’t Forget About Dessert!
What meal is complete without dessert? From pan dulce to arroz con leche, there are plenty of desserts inspired by Mexican culture that you can enjoy this holiday season. Our favorite is champurrado, a rich chocolate drink that is best enjoyed while snuggled up on the couch for a Netflix marathon.
