This recipe is an absolute CROWD PLEASER. I promise you, if there is one recipe for entertaining you need this spring and summer, it’s this one. Save this recipe now because you will use it over and over again. The one ingredient that I did not use in my video is jalapeno, I generally leave this out when I make this recipe …. I know, you may be saying this is not authentic! But I prefer the taste of just the cayenne and not the addition of the jalapeno. With that said, if you LOVE spicy, then definitely add in the jalapeno as instructed in the ingredients below. And don’t forget the margaritas with this recipe! Then you’ll be livin’ large my friend.
