3 Romaine hearts (8 cups chopped)
2 cups baby greens, like baby kale (optional)
1/4 cup sliced red onions (or Pickled Red Onions)
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
4 radishes

Add-ons: Crispy Tortilla Strips, crumbled feta or cotija cheese, chopped avocado, black beans, or chopped cucumber

Estimated Reading Time 5 mins
  • Classic Guacamole. Why begin with something other than everyone’s favorite guacamole? Guacamole can take up many roles like a dip, a salad, and a spread.
  • Blueberry & Red Bell Pepper Salsa. You often hear about salsas when the subject is Mexican food. Red bell peppers are sweet, and blueberries are luscious.
  • Mexican Rice (Spanish Rice/ Arroz Rojo) Mexican rice, also called Spanish rice is a Mexican side dish, that is not at all related to Spain (despite its other name).
  • Carlota. This authentic Mexican dessert is fun to make and tastes delicious. No time to cook when you have people over and looking for easy Mexican side dishes?
  • Frijoles Borrachos a.k.a Borracho Beans. Also called borracho beans, Frijoles Borrachos is a traditional side dish to tacos, tortillas, and enchiladas.
  • Refried Beans. Frijoles refritos, that’s what you call refried beans in Spanish. This dish is a traditional staple food of Mexico which gained popularity in other Latin American countries and in Tex-Mex cuisine.
  • Cheesy Chicken Chimichanga. Chimichangas are Mexican appetizers that can be described as deep-fried burritos and are tortilla-based (that’s obvious). You can stuff chimichangas with proteinaceous veggies or meat of your choice (or even mushrooms).
  • Mexican Street Corn Salad (Elote Salad) There are plenty of healthy Mexican side dishes, and Mexican street corn salad is one of them. Don’t let the word “street” fool you.
  • Mexican Grilled Zucchini. Are you looking for Mexican vegetable side dishes without rice or beans? Then try this low-carb grilled zucchini, which doesn’t taste any less than the routine sides.
  • Mexican Coleslaw. Alright! Coleslaw is of Dutch origin, but Mexicans adapted it to their cuisine, and the result is the creamy Mexican coleslaw. This goes well with fried chicken, fried fish, and barbequed meats.

  • Prepare the corn. If you’re making the salad at least an hour ahead, you can add frozen corn directly to the salad and it will thaw in the fridge. If you’re serving the salad immediately, thaw the frozen corn in the fridge ahead of time (can be done overnight) or cook the corn and let it sit at room temperature while you prepare the other ingredients.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chopped vegetables (corn, black beans, red pepper, red onion, tomatoes, carrots, jalapeño) and mozzarella cheese.
  • Add ranch dressing. Start with 3 tbsp ranch, then toss, and add more as needed. The vegetables should be lightly coated in ranch so the colors of the vegetables are still visible. Less is more.

13 EASY MEXICAN SIDE DISHES - WHAT TO SERVE WITH TACOS ...

From thekitchn.com
Estimated Reading Time 3 mins
  • Easy Taco Slaw. Slaw of any kind works especially well as a side dish because it can also be piled high on your tacos. This one is delicately spiced and just a little creamy without being overpowering.
  • Frijoles de la Olla. Finished with fresh tomatoes and queso, these slow cooker beans make a hearty side and can double as a meal themselves. Credit: Brie Passano.
  • Charred Corn Salsa. Yes, salsa totally qualifies as a side dish! You can serve it up as a standalone salad or toss it with crunchy greens for serving alongside rice and beans or quesadillas.
  • Tex-Mex Quinoa Salad. One of my favorite lunch salads also works really well as a side dish for fajitas, tacos, or enchiladas, and the leftovers make eating the rest of the week easier, too.
  • How To Make Elote (Mexican Street Corn) Elote — grilled corn with lime-y crema and queso — is a pretty obvious choice for a Mexican side dish, right?
  • Mexican Restaurant-Style Cauliflower Rice. If you’re looking to keep taco night a little low-carb, this cauliflower take on Mexican rice is just the thing!
  • Restaurant-Style Mexican Rice. This classic is well-loved for a reason — fragrant, flavorful rice really rounds out taco (or enchilada) night without much extra effort.
  • Slow Cooker Charro Beans. These charro beans have bacon, tons of vegetables, and a lush broth you’ll really want to swipe tortillas through. Credit: Joe Lingeman.
  • Esquites (Mexican Corn Salad) If you want elote off the cob, esquites is for you! The best part is you can make this salad using frozen corn when you can’t get fresh.
  • Mexican-Style Meatless Stuffed Peppers. These stuffed peppers use lots of shortcuts, making them a great choice for nights when you need a Mexican side dish with minimal effort.
