Cinco de Mayo

Tamales using the same recipe as last year. I made a soy chorizo, yellow onion, and green bell pepper filling. I found Cacique soy chorizo at Fiesta. It caught me by surprise since it was in the Mexican cheese area! Fiesta is so fun.

Refried beans were again made using Isa's recipe from Appetite for Reduction.

Cashew queso was a last minute addition, but it was so damn good. I added turmeric to get the color right, since I used a green bell pepper instead red. I also did not use a jalapeno (how did I not buy one?!). I used chipotle pepper powder instead of ancho.
