APRIL COOKING CHALLENGE RECAP
April’s cooking challenge featured flautas, and everyone’s looked delicious! Thank you to all who participated. April’s winner was Tara, and she was notified via email.
Have any questions or concerns? Put them below! We can’t wait to see your submissions for this month. Happy cooking!
Today I made flan and it came out perfectly! It was my first time using a flanera. I’ve always used foil pans. Either way, it was delicious! Instead of whole milk, I use evaporated carnation milk. Now I get to enjoy my flan for a couple of days.
The best corn on the cob I’ve ever had.
I would like to know where I can buy Mexican clay dishes for my dinning room table. I’ve looked on line and so far have found nothing. Hopefully you can help.
Sincerely Kathy Beeston-Downs
Hi Kathy! You can find them at most Mexican grocery stores. You can also try Amazon or Etsy!
