FAMILY FEATURES

Cinco de Mayo is, offi cially, a holiday celebrat-ing Mexico’s victory over France in the 1862 Battle of Puebla. In the U.S., where it is actual-

ly celebrated with more gusto than in its native coun-try, the holiday has become a celebration of Mexican heritage and culture. Th e holiday also provides a great excuse to make irresistible Mexican-inspired recipes for entertaining and, of course, a big batch of margaritas to wash it all down. Fresh sweet corn is an essential component of many Mexican dishes and a cultural staple. Luckily, Cinco de Mayo falls right in the middle of Florida’s Sunshine Sweet Corn season, meaning that the sweetest corn, available all year, arrives just in time to be a part of your Cinco de Mayo celebration. Th ese naturally-bred varieties are grown by a group of family farmers who are committed to producing the fi nest sweet corn. Get the fi esta started with this Fire Roasted Corn and Chorizo Dip and a big bowl of tortilla chips. Crunchy, spicy, sweet and creamy, this addictive dip

will have your guests asking for more. Next, be sure to serve Mexican Style Corn, a truly authentic and delicious Mexican street food. Crunchy ears of fresh sweet corn are charred to perfection then slathered with a mixture of cheese and mayo, sprinkled with chili powder and squirted with lime for simple fl avor perfection. Finally, no Cinco de Mayo celebration is complete without tacos. For a healthful twist on your typical taco, try this recipe for Charred Corn Tacos with Radish Zucchini Slaw that will have both vegetarians and meat eaters clamoring for seconds. Incorporating more healthful whole foods and veggies into your Cinco de Mayo celebration this year makes it easier to justify one more margarita. No matter what you serve at your Cinco de Mayo celebration, make sure to incorporate the sweet and wholesome fl avor of fresh spring sweet corn. Discover more mouth-watering recipes for Cinco de Mayo and every time of year at www.sunshine-sweetcorn.com.
