Taco Night Recipes

Spice things up with this week’s taco-themed box, which comes complete with Skagit River Ranch’s signature chorizo sausage, locally-made, hand-pressed tortillas and Samish Bay queso fresco cheese. Top your tacos with a flavorful, lime-kissed cucumber slaw (see recipes for details!), serve with a side of smoky beans or cilantro-lime rice, pour yourself a mojito—and you’ve got the makings of a Southwestern-style feast. Also included: Multigrain bread, farm-fresh eggs and seasonal produce like pea shoots, carrots and parsnips, plus Mexican chocolate and vanilla bean marshmallows to help you craft a delicious baked apple dessert. Enjoy!

Here are a few recipe ideas for the week:

Cucumber-Lime Slaw
This simple, flavorful slaw is wonderful piled on top of tacos!

Smoky Southwestern Beans
You can enjoy these beans straight out of the pot, or save and prepare them refried-style later.

Cilantro-Lime Rice
A fantastic side to tacos, enchiladas and more.

Honey & Thyme-Roasted Carrots with Queso Fresco
A delightfully-fresh spin on roasted carrots.

Crispy Parsnip Chips
These lightly-salted baked chips are a wonderful afternoon snack, or try dusting them with a little taco seasoning for a Tex-Mex twist!

Baked Apples with Mexican Chocolate & Vanilla Bean Marshmallows
A truly delicious dessert made from farmstead apples and cinnamon-kissed chocolate.
