Mexican night in Turkey

Last week we had a friend over who has spent a lot of time in the states.  We asked her what types of food she missed from America and one of them was Mexican food.  So I made a tex-mex meal for her and chocolate chip cookies as an extra.  

Despite not having everything I needed for things, it turned out great!

The salsa was delicious: tomatoes, onions, green chilies, and some spices!

The finished product! Yum!

Confetti salad! It was supposed to be black bean but I couldn't find any so it's white bean confetti salad.  Beans, corn, red and green bell peppers, onions, a bit of garlic.  For the dressing: honey, olive oil, cumin, garlic, salt and pepper.  So easy to make!

Chicken Tostadas! Perfect!

Dessert was Polvorones de canele (Cinnamon cookies).  I'd never made these before, but they were a delicious light dessert! A perfect end to our tex-mex night!
