Plan your fiesta menu with this Ultimate Cinco de Mayo Menu. Everything you need to plan your Cinco de Mayo celebration in one place!
So who is excited for Cinco de Mayo? I’ll admit that I didn’t love Mexican food until a couple years ago. When we moved to Nashville and lived with my sister and brother-in-law they always wanted to go out for Mexican and so I had to find something I like. Turns out I LOVE queso and a good Chicken and Cheese Quesadilla. Lately in the last couple of months of my pregnancy I have been all about Mexican food so it seems fitting that I’m due on Cinco de May0.
I wanted to put together a great round up so I decided to create the ultimate round up by including drinks, appetizers, main dishes and desserts. Everything you need to plan your Cinco de Mayo celebration all in one place!
