Cinco de Mayo is a fun celebration of the Mexican victory over the French army. Here are some delicious recipes to help you celebrate and enjoy the day.
Back in 1862, a very large French army was defeated by the much smaller Mexican army. This day gave the Mexican army some much needed morale boost during the Battle of Puebla and it slowed the French army's advancement towards Mexico City.
Although the Mexican army eventually lost the battle overall, that day is still commemorated. There are parades, music, dancing, and even battle reenactments. It's a time of hearty celebration and rejoicing.
And don't forget the food. There are so many delicious ways to enjoy the feasting of this celebration, besides the average taco. Here are some of my favorites.

Interesting historical context, and I enjoyed reading it... but I don't think your food list made it to the page at the end. I haven't found a way to get HTML to work on these platforms yet, so you may have to just list them for us. I would really love to what your favourites are! It happens on May 5th, right? Hey... that's the day after Star Wars Day (May the Forth be with you). lol
Thank for your comment. I will look at the wordpress plugin I am using. In the meantime, click on the link at the bottom of the post to go to my original page.
