Hispanic Heritage Month Recipes

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! Each year, from September 15 to October 15 Americans celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month by sharing the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central and South America. 2021 was especially significant because it was the 200th anniversary of Costa Rican Independence from Spain.

Mains - Pear Salad, Basmati Rice, Lentil Salad, Veggie Pasta Salad, Mesquite Seasoned Pork Tenderloin with Veggies, Shrimp and Green Bean Paella, and Zucchini & Carrot Patties

Desserts - Fresh Fruit Salad, Cranberry Cake, Macaroons, Rainbow Cookies

Here are a few shots from the table, recipes to follow at later dates.
