Pepinillos

So my favorite snack is Pepinillos:

  • peel a cucumber and slice it up
  • get your ingrediants, 2 limes, salt and hot sauce (I use tapatio)
  • squirt some lime juice onto the bottom of the plate and layer some cucumber slices on top.
  • sprinkle on salt to taste, a dash of hot sauce and some lime juice, continue layering slices marinating them as you go. at the end squirt whatever lime juice you have left over it.
I swear this is a million times better then popcorn and way more healthy too. Now here's the kicker, after I chow down on these delicious cukes I drink the juice... It feels like a smack in the face, but then you come back for more. I swear you will love them, just try it! Super easy to make, cheep ingredients and a delicious treat! Don't forget to let me know how you liked em!

  2. Margot, thanks for the recent email. As a food lover (who isn't?) I checked out your blog too. Loved this post -- "like a smack in the face" -- woo hoo! I'll have to give it a try. Your post had me longing for Mexico and the street peddlers who sell jicama, watermelon, mango with powdered chile. This sounds like another great twist on the juicy/hot combo. Good luck with the new catering business.
