Here is a collection of my favourite Mexican recipes. I was lucky to grow up in Southern California where there is a lot of excellent and authentic Mexican food. Also, during university in San Diego, I was even closer to the border. Even when I go back now, I always crave Mexican food almost every day. There are a lot of flavourful spices, though the food is not always super hot and spice. Also, there are a lot of fresh vegetables and herbs. It is so flavourful and delicious!

I have a funny story about being saved by Mexican food. While I was in Vietnam, I had a lot of stomach issues so I had to eat a lot of canned food to avoid getting sick. I found a supply of tortillas and refried beans to survive. And thankfully, a friend from California sent me an emergency supply of Mexican spice and sauces!
