This addictive queso dip is extra creamy, warm and spicy, and takes about as much time to make as it does to open a bag of tortilla chips and mix up the Margaritas.

Orange juice is the surprise ingredient in these Key Lime Margaritas, taking the place of simple syrup to cut the sweetness and let the pure flavors of lime and tequila shine through.

In this easy chopped salad, chicken, cucumbers, tomatoes, avocados and Jack cheese are tossed with a homemade chili ranch dressing and a garnish of crumbled tortilla chips.

I recreated these beef tacos – salty-crunchy, spicy-saucy, and melty-cheesy – in memory of the ones from a favorite college hangout.

This flavorful but not-too-hot beef chili is easy to make on the stove, but a lot more fun to make over an open fire.
