Flautas (Spanish for flutes) are a similar concept as taquitos but are typically a little larger and made with flour tortillas. As I did with my taquitos, I baked my flautas for a healthier version, filling homemade flour tortillas with a simple taco beef filling and cheese.

Taquitos (“little tacos”) are tightly-rolled tortillas, typically filled with chicken or beef and then deep-fried. I baked my taquitos, filling homemade corn tortillas with a simple taco beef filling.

These ribs are great for any BBQ or picnic. The key is to sear the meat on high for a couple of minutes to lock the juices inside, and then slow-cook them until done so that they remain tender.

Carne asada literally means “roasted meat” in Spanish and is typically a flank steak or skirt steak that is thinly cut and roasted or grilled. These carne asada tacos were the closest that we have come to replicating the tacos from one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. The corn tortillas were tender and pliable and the steak was tender and juicy.

When I was little, my family would always celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with a feast of corned beef, boiled potatoes and boiled cabbage. For me, the meal was never that exciting. It was our traditional leftover meal on March 18, however, that was always my favorite: corned beef hash.

St. Patrick’s Day is approaching so I started thinking about corned beef. The funny thing is, corned beef isn’t even a traditional Irish meal. According to some sources, it has become a traditional St. Patrick’s Day meal in America because of the influence of the Irish-American population and the Irish immigrants back in the 1800′s.
