Parties:
XV years party:
InMexico we have a very good party for girls, named: “XV years”. We do a very big party where we invite our all family and friends. Before the celebration we go to church and the priest does a mass only for you.The girl has to use a big dress and she has to look very well to the other people. And at the party she dances Vals with her friends, then all people eat something and when they finished they can dance. In that party we eat “barbacoa”, beans, “tinga”, and sometimes prefer to eat food from other countries. And if they want, they give some alcohol.
Typical Mexican food at Parties:
Tostadas:Tostadas are like flat tacos that are usually made by layering frijoles (refried beans) on op of a fried, flat corn tortilla and then adding a variety of different toppings, like meat, lettuce, guacamole, cheese and salsa. They’re colorful. They’re festive. They’re easy to make and perfect for a casual spring or summer Mexican dinner buffet. |

Salsas:Salsas or Salsa is the most basic dish in any Mexican food meal, often served as an appetizer with chips and used to jazz up everything from eggs to main courses. Salsas can be made from fresh, raw vegetables or cooked. Every Mexican food chef has their own particular way of making salsa. No two are ever alike! Basic ingredients are chiles, tomatoes, onions, cilantro and spices. |
| Tacos:It seems like tacos are everyone’s first introduction to Mexican food. Initially, the only kind of tacos to be found this side of the border were made from ground beef. (Boring!) Now there is a myriad of meat, poultry and seafood fillings for tacos. |

Barbacoa:Barbacoa generally refers to meats or a whole sheep slow cooked over an open fire, or more traditionally, in a pit covered with leaves. Barbacoa de cabeza is a specialty of slow cooked cow head that arose in the ranching lands of northern Mexico after the Spanish conquest. |
