Cinco De Mayo

I wanted to celebrate Cinco De Mayo this year, but I didn't want to go out to a mexican restaurant, because I figured it would be too busy. So, we had a festive dinner at home instead. I made chicken tortilla soup and dessert nachos.

For the dessert nachos, I used cinnamon sugar pita chips, a "fruit salsa" (diced strawberry, mango, kiwi) and topped it with whip cream and chocolate.  My husband really liked the dessert nachos, and I thought they were good too, but I think I'll add ice cream or frozen yogurt next time.

I had originally planned to surprise my husband with a pinata, but decided not too when in causal conversation he mentioned that he wanted to cut back on candy. I'll save that idea for another year, or for when our little girl grows up.
