Frontera Foods Blog Memorial Day Weekend with Frontera

Time to the weekend: Memorial Day Weekend that is. Three days of fun in the sun (we hope) and three days of easy entertaining with friends. We're firing up the grill to make Grilled Corn and Poblano Guacamole. This chunky rendition jumpstarts any party. Pair it with cold beer and our thick tortilla chips. Thus fortified, your friends will happily help with the rest of the menu. To keep things under control, employ the slow-cooker to make Frontera Red Chile Barbacoa. Make it before the weekend: It will keep refrigerated for several days. Then reheat it in the microwave, shred the meat and serve it tucked into tacos with fresh arugula and a shower of freshly chopped cilantro or garden-fresh chives. We always say the Grilled Red Chile Chicken Quesadillas pleases the children; truth is, adults gobble them up as fast as we can grill them to melty goodness. Roasted Veggie Tacos satisfy everyone, not just the vegetarians in the crowd. Offer a green salad and warm garlicky white rice (it reheats beautifully in the microwave). Buy your plantains today so they ripen in time to make our Banana Sundaes. Welcome summer!
