Cilantro is an herb that grows from seed to maturity in about three weeks. It does not last long in the summer heat so it needs to be used up quickly and replanted often. Have some extra on hand? Use it to create a fun fiesta in your kitchen.
Cook up some ground beef, shredded chicken, or juicy shrimp, and then invite everyone to make their own tacos. Offer an assortment of corn, flour, soft, and hard tortillas and all kinds of fun toppings. Fresh cilantro, lettuce, jalapenos, onions, tomatoes, radishes, and shredded cheeses are musts.
Condiments like sour cream, fresh guacamole, and several kinds of salsas make this taco party even more tasty. See the recipes section to learn how to make homemade guacamole and a variety of fresh salsas that will appeal to every member of your family.
