Even though this food update is about my Cinco de Mayo supper, I couldn't leave out la cena de Cinco de Cuatro because it was just as yummy. Simple but delicious - fusilli col buco from Giada's Target line, black tiger shrimp & a homemade sauce made from butter, olive oil, dill, Boursin cheese and a bit of heavy cream to thicken. The pasta was my favorite - it has such a great texture! I wish they made it in a whole wheat version!
And to the main event...Cinco de Mayo fish tacos! Since I've been trying to eat healthier as swim suit season is approaching, I am focusing on lots of veggies, proteins and whole wheat carbs if I have to go there.

the southwestern coleslaw - red cabbage, jalapenos, cilantro, honey & lime juice |

la cerveza |

the chips - these new artisan black bean & roasted garlic tortilla chips - they tasted more like doritos - yum! |
|
the vail safeway didn't have fresh fish so we had to buy frozen mahi mahi - the grill master still conquered with salt, pepper, cajun seasoning & chili powder |
|
I added sliced tomatoes, chipolte mexican corn, and homemade white sauce |
|
que bueno! |
