The Best of La Cocina de Leslie in 2011

As 2011 is coming to an end, I thought it would be fun to revisit some of the year's most popular recipes, from month to month.

December:
Because of this rich and creamy Simply Irresistible Mexican Hot Chocolate Flan, I now spell romance F-L-A-N!



November:
This recipe isn't for everyone, but it was one of the most visited of the entire year...Criadillas a la Mexicana.



October:
My favorite pizza is this Mexican Pizza topped with homemade chorizo and jalapeño peppers.  Ay.  Dios.  Mio! 



September:
Pork Tacos {Dallas Gas Station Style} from The Homesick Texan Cookbook by Lisa Fain



August:
Conchas from the very first She Made/Ella Hace with my good friend, Girlichef




July:
Decadent Mexican Chocolate Brownies  made with Abuelita brand chocolate.




June:
My signature dish...Crema de Brocoli (Cream of Broccoli Soup)

Cream of Broccoli


May:
For the hottest month of the year in Mexico, we cooled down with a refreshing glass of Agua de Pepino (Cucumber Limeade)



April:
My recipe for Arroz Verde was not only the top recipe in April, it is also the second Most Popular Recipe of the entire year.





March:
Pecan Pie Bread Pudding  is a delicious alternative to Capirotada during Lent.



February:
Chorizo Quesadillas



January:
And last, but definitely not least...the #1 recipe in January and 2011 are my Enfrijoladas.




Thank you all so much for your continued love and support.   Best wishes for a very Happy New Year!  See you in 2012!  XOXO
