Here is my Menu for Cinco De Mayo
http://www.recipezazz.com/recipes/menu/17
and here are the photos for the first day, Saturday...
We had a very nice Fiesta Chicken Taco Salad served in a Tortilla Bowl.
I had never made Tortilla bowls before , Dreamer-in-Ontario's recipe made what i thought was a difficult thing very easy and fun to do - and quick too in the microwave.
And MimiMaine's Fiesta Chicken Taco salad looked wonderful and colourful in it , the whole thing was delightful and delicious, especially the dressing

First, it's a test run for a cookathon event. I wanted to see if there would be a good response, and there has.
Second, if the event was successful, which I think it is, I would be willing to guest host, if the photo forum hosts were agreeable to it, a whole series of photothon/cookathon events, about every 4-6 weeks, each on a different topic, and each one lasting 5-7 days, so we don't burn out on it.
If the forum hosts are "Go!" for this, anyone who would like to help out with me on the events could feel free, either on a one-time basis or with as many events as they would like.
If everyone likes, the next photothon event could be held the first part of June, maybe for something like "Strawberries" or something else, and then again in July with a "Summer Cookout" theme. And after that who knows? Maybe members could vote on what kind of theme they'd like.
I really enjoy cookathons from the "old days" at zaar, and love having an excuse to cook!
But first things first, photo forum hosts have to decide if they want more of these.
Re: Cinco de Mayo Cookathon & Photothon!
would like to see Mexican continue for the month of May if you wish to do
so.. We have already made plans for June and future months for fun events
that have been requested by members. As for future cookathon/Photothon
events we will have to play that by ear. The membership is still small so
we plan events that will draw members in for a longer periods of time. You
put a lot of effort into Cinco de Mayo and it is sure appreciated. Contact
me by Z-mail or e-mail if you want to discuss this further
