In honor of the end of our 3-month Baja excursion, here are a handful of Mexican and Mexican-fusion recipes that I’ve put together in recent months.
Before crossing the border into Baja this past February, I was nervous that I might have trouble doing my recipe development job down there. For this job I’m given a list of ideas each week from which I select one and pitch a recipe. I then fine-tune and shoot the recipe, write the accompanying blog, and submit the final work.

They are a perfect appetizer, each bite being a delightful combination of meat, herbs, and spices, all coated in a rich sauce that you will undoubtedly be dredging from the bottom of the dish with a piece of bread before too long.
