🌮 Hola, I’m Emma! 🌮
Welcome to my flavorful kitchen—where every recipe has a story and every bite brings a little piece of Mexico to your table.
Why Mexican?
My love for Mexican cooking began with my family: long afternoons in the kitchen with my mom, rolling out tortillas or watching my grandma stir her favorite salsas. Growing up in Orlando, I was lucky to be surrounded by both local ingredients and a melting pot of culinary traditions. But it’s the bold, bright flavors of Mexican food that captured my heart—and my taste buds.

From Orlando to Oaxaca (in spirit!)
While I call Orlando home, my cooking spirit lives somewhere between my grandma’s stove and the vibrant markets of Mexico. I love recreating authentic dishes, experimenting with street food snacks, and sharing easy sides and salads that everyone—yes, even picky eaters—will love.
What You’ll Find Here
- Traditional Dishes: Classic Mexican meals, family favorites, and comfort food
- Salsas & Snacks: Sauces, dips, and fun bites for every gathering
- Salads & Sides: Fresh, vibrant additions to your table
Every recipe is made with love, inspired by generations, and tested right in my own kitchen (sometimes with a little help from my family’s taste-testers!).
Let’s Cook Together

I believe that food is about connection and joy—whether you grew up on Mexican food or you’re trying your very first enchilada. I hope these recipes inspire you to cook, share, and savor every moment.
¡Gracias for stopping by—and happy cooking!
With love and a sprinkle of spice,
Emma
