Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spread the pepitas in a single layer on an ungreased baking sheet. Place in the oven and toast until the pepitas turn darker (they'll be a deep goldish brown) and are fragrant, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and carefully transfer the pepitas to a small plate or bowl. Set aside. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
- On a rimmed baking sheet (I use the same one I toasted the pepitas on to save a dish; just brush it off first), toss sweet potatoes with the olive oil, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and salt until evenly coated. Spread into an even layer and roast until browned and tender, 20 to 22 minutes, stirring once halfway through. Let cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the dressing ingredients: Greek yogurt, olive oil, lime zest and juice, garlic, salt, and cumin. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. The dressing should taste very bright and limey-its flavor will mellow once tossed with the other ingredients.
- In a large bowl, place the chopped romaine hearts. Drizzle with about 1/4 cup of the dressing and toss to moisten.
- Add the sweet potatoes, beans, jalapeno, radish, and cilantro, then drizzle on another 1/4 cup of dressing. Toss to coat. Sprinkle with tortilla strips. Enjoy, with extra dressing as desired.

MEXICAN-STYLE VEGETABLE SALAD
I love beans, rice, and calabacitas as much as the next person, but sometimes you want something lighter. This is perfect.

Steps:
- Cut the tomatoes vertically into 8 to 12 wedges each, depending on their size (or simply chop). Thaw the frozen corn in a colander. Slice the onion as thinly as possible. Seed the cucumbers and slice into 1/8-inch-thick slices.
- To make the dressing, crush the garlic into a paste on a cutting board with the side of a chef's knife, or use a mortar and pestle. Combine the garlic, minced chiles, chipotle puree, and cilantro with the lime juice.
- Place all the vegetables in a large bowl. Just before serving, drizzle the dressing over the top and stir gently to mix. Top with roasted pepper strips.
- ** Look for chipotle chilies canned in adobo sauce. Puree the whole can and store in a jar in the refrigerator. They keep quite a while and are perfect for jazzing up all manner of foods. Use sparingly, though -- it's hot!

- Churros with Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce. The shape of pastry tip you use for this churros recipe is very important. If the tip isn’t closed, or rounded off, the churros may break as you’re frying them (we used size 845 tips).
- Vegetarian Chorizo Tacos with Masa Queso. King’s Highway diner in Palm Springs, CA, gave us the recipe for their mushroom chorizo and creamy sauce, and our tacos will never be the same.
- BA's Best Guacamole. This easy guacamole recipe is best made in a Mexican mortar and pestle called a molcajete, but a bowl and a fork works fine. Just don’t rush to get it on the table.
- Cinco Leches Cake. To get that classically decadent, milk-in-every-bite texture, be patient and let it sit overnight. View Recipe.
- Grilled Salsa Roja. Charring the tomatoes and vegetables plays up their sweetness and adds smoky, bitter notes. This goes great with quesadillas, grilled snapper, and pork.
- Smooth and Spicy Pinto Bean Soup. Some of us still have nightmares about bad puréed black bean soups that were once a “thing.” Creamy puréed pinto beans, chiles, and lots of mix-ins set this soup on the right path.
- Quesadillas with Squash Blossoms. Seek out a tortilleria if possible; it makes a difference. View Recipe.
- Rutabaga Tacos with Greens and Queso Fresco. Filled with greens, roasted vegetables, and a little queso fresco, these veggie tacos are easy to make for a fun weeknight meal.
- Fried Avocado Tacos. Crunchy and creamy deep-fried avocados will win over any carnivore. View Recipe.

- This simple little salad can be quite extraordinary, but you’ve got to season it with that Mexican spirit by being brave with the lime juice, salt and chilli, until it’s singing in your mouth.
- It does a great job of waking up the other things it’s served with – a few spoonfuls of this next to a grilled chicken breast or pork chop would be an absolute celebration.Veg-wise, the onion, coriander and white cabbage are non-negotiable, as they form the base of this salad, but feel free to have a play with the other ingredients and use things like fennel or asparagus.
- Basically whatever’s in season and available should be a nice addition.The easiest and quickest way to make this is to use a food processor with a slicer attachment or a mandolin.
- If you don’t have either of those, use a speed peeler, or simply grate everything finely.Shred your white and red cabbage into two separate piles.
