Cinco de Mayo Recipes

Cinco de Mayo, or “Fifth of May,” is the Anniversary of the Mexican victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War in 1862. (It is often mistaken for Mexican Independence Day, which is actually celebrated on September 16.)

While the holiday is mostly celebrated by Americans (and usually involves margaritas), Cinco de Mayo is usually celebrated with lots of great food! These are some of my favorite recipes for Cherry Tomato Salsa, Instant Pot Queso, and Chili Lime Chicken!
