Magnolia Table with Joanna Gaines: Season 8, Episode 5

Mexican Cuisine

Mexican food is always a top choice in the Gaines household. During this episode of Magnolia Table with Joanna Gaines, Jo carries on the tradition of sharing family-favorite Mexican dishes almost every season of the show. She starts off with something sweet, baking one of her and Crew’s favorite desserts, warm Churro Cookies. (Fun fact: You can try these at Silos Baking Co. this summer!)

For the main, Jo shares her recipe for creamy Spinach Enchiladas—a delicious way to incorporate a medley of fresh, nutrient-dense veggies into a meal. Next up, she makes homemade Queso Blanco and Fresh Tomato Salsa sided with crunchy tortilla chips. She plates this delicious meal alongside Mexican Rice, a staple recipe from Magnolia Table Cookbook, Volume 1, and Charro Beans.

Jo said it best…each bite is packed with flavor and love. Enjoy!
