Can we just talk about how many bags of tortilla chips my household goes through on a weekly basis?  I’m almost too embarrassed to tell you. 

Let’s just say that my family eats about 2-4 bags of tortilla chips every week.  Yes, they’re usually organic tortilla chips, but still…we’re that family at the Mexican restaurant that eats so many baskets of chips & salsa, we’re not even hungry when our meal arrives. 

Today I’m sharing 5 Best Party Foods for Cinco de Mayo so you can access all of these fun party recipes in one place. 

So if you’re expert chip dippers like we are, you will love the following recipes!  Now who’s bringing the margaritas?

#1 Roasted Tomatillo & Avocado Salsa

Roasted Tomatillo & Avocado Salsa is a tangy, spicy salsa verde that’s made with oven-roasted tomatillos, onions, and peppers with some fresh cilantro and creamy avocado. Perfect for dipping chips or topping tacos!

#2 Mexican Hot Carrots

In San Diego when you go out for Mexican food, you get the requisite chips and salsa, but you usually get a bowl of spicy Mexican Hot Carrots too.  They’re pickled with jalapenos & onion for a spicy bite!

#3 Roasted Tomato Habanero Salsa

Roasting fresh tomatoes, onion, jalapeno and habanero peppers is what gives Roasted Tomato Habanero Salsa its irresistible flavor. The perfect dip for tortilla chips, and a spicy, flavorful addition to tacos, burritos, nachos, and more!

#4 Avocado Pico de Gallo

There’s salsa, there’s guacamole, then there’s Avocado Pico de Gallo.  Dip with chips, top tacos, or eat it with a spoon.  I won’t tell anyone.

#5 Easy Homemade Salsa

Easy Homemade Salsa is easily one of my family’s favorite recipes on the blog.  I make it ALL THE TIME.  How do you think we go through so many tortilla chips?  Kidding.  Well, kind of. 

Do yourself a favor and make two batches.  One for your personal enjoyment to keep in the fridge, and one for your get together.
