Happy Cinco de Mayo! Any reason to celebrate with good food is fine with me! I love Mexican food so this holiday is especially fun to me. I made some Apple Pie Chimichungas that couldn’t be easier if they tried. Three ingredients to delicious tasty bliss.
The extra special part of this day is that it’s a surprise virtual baby shower for my sweet friends Nikki and Alyssa who are best friends and each due within a few days of each other! Holly and I decided we needed to give them a Mexican Fiesta of a shower since they both love Mexican food and it is Cinco de Mayo, afterall. We invited some other bloggers to join in the party.
Be sure to check out the other bloggers’ recipes after my Apple Pie Chimichingas to see what they are celbrating with.
