It’s taco Tuesday!  The lettuce is shredded, the chicken and beef are perfectly cooked and your tortilla shells are good to go.  The only thing you haven’t quite figured out is what to serve with the meal.  Here are a couple of great authentic food suggestions.

Elote is a popular side dish and street food from Mexico, although Americans know it better as corn on the cob.  However, instead of just topping your corn with butter and salt, why not try some different condiments.  Mexicans will typically add chili powder, cheese, lemon juice, sour cream and even mayonnaise to the elote.  If you don’t want to get your hands dirty, you can serve the kernels in a bowl.  Your elote has now become esquites!

Perhaps you’d like to serve something special at the end of the meal.  Arroz con leche, or rice pudding, is a popular dessert dish.  Typically made with milk, cinnamon, sugar, egg yolk, vanilla, orange peel and sometimes raisins, it is the perfect end to a great meal.  You can accent this dish with chocolate, nutmeg and even lime zest!

Whatever you choose to serve, there are many great options that are easy to prepare, many of which may become staples for your everyday meals!
