www.perrosalado.com

By Portia Little It’s time for margaritas, mariachis, and more. Here in Newport, south “of the Providence” border, many folks will celebrate Cinco de Mayo by throwing their own fiestas at home. Make-ahead food takes the edge off last-minute prep. Party time begins with a great guacamole — add the kick of jalap-eno pepper, the aroma of garlic and onion, and leave in some chunks of avocado to sink your teeth into. Keep it in the fridge until serving time. And, to take the bite off all that spicy Mexican food, the people down the camino at the Alternative Food Co-op in Wakefield suggest a mango salsa that’s fragrant with fresh citrus. They say it’s good for your skin too! Of course, no party would be complete without a wonderful bread pudding. Make it with chunks of chocolate and raisins that have been soaked in dark rum, and serve this deca-dent sweet morsel topped with real whipped cream. If you’re hosting a more inti-mate get-together, some enchila-das stuffed with pumpkin would be perfect just for the two of you. Mexican food and culture never felt so good!

Mango and Avocado Salsa • 1 mango, peeled and diced into 1-inch pieces• 1 avocado, ripe but not too soft, peeled and diced into 1-inch pieces• 1 green onion, finely sliced, or 1/2 shallot, minced• Some orange juice, or 1/2 fresh lemon or lime juice• 1 tablespoon olive oil (about)• Salt• Fresh parsley or cilantro (okay to use dry parsley if that’s all you have)

• Chili powder or chili pepper, optional Mix all ingredients together and serve as is or can chill before serv-ing. Serves 3-4.

(Recipe from The Alternative Food Co-op, Wakefield, RI)

Mexican Chocolate Rum-Raisin

Bread Pudding • 8 cups day-old bread, cut in 1-inch cubes• 1/2 cup good-quality bittersweet baking chocolate, chopped into chip-size pieces (or chocolate chips)• 1 cup California golden raisins, soaked in 1/4 cup dark rum• 4 large eggs• 2 cups heavy cream• 1 cup half-and-half• 3/4 cup sugar• 1/2 cup brown sugar• 1 teaspoon cinnamon• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract• 1/2 teaspoon salt• 1/4 cup cocoa powder

Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 13x9x1 1/2-inch glass or nonre-active baking pan. Spread bread cubes in pan; sprinkle chocolate pieces and raisins evenly on top and set aside. In large mixing bowl, whisk remaining ingredients to-gether. Pour over bread mixture. Let stand for about 5 minutes. Bake, uncovered, 40 to 50 min-utes at 350°F or until sharp knife in-serted in center of pudding comes out clean. To serve, cut into 20 squares. Serve warm with whipped cream.

(Adapted from recipe from the California Raisin Marketing Board,

www.loveyourraisins.com)

Surprise, It’s Pumpkin! Enchiladas

• 2 medium-large corn tortillas (like Mission Super Size) • 3/4 cup enchilada sauce, divided • 2/3 cup canned pure pumpkin • 1/3 cup chopped onion• 1/4 cup shredded fat-free Cheddar cheese • 1 slice fat-free Cheddar cheese, halved • 1 1/2 tablespoons taco sauce • 1 teaspoon dry taco seasoning mix • Optional: salt, black pepper, fat-free sour cream, chopped scallions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Bring a pan sprayed with non-stick spray to medium heat on stove. Add onion and, stirring oc-casionally, cook until it begins to brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer to medium bowl. Add pumpkin, taco sauce, and taco seasoning to bowl. Mix well. If you like, season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside. Spray small baking dish with non-stick spray; set aside. Warm tortillas slightly in microwave. Lay tortillas flat on clean, dry surface. Spread 2 tablespoons en-chilada sauce onto each one. Place a half-slice cheese in center of each tortilla. Evenly distribute pumpkin mixture between centers of tortillas. Wrap tortillas up tightly and place them in baking dish with seam sides down. Cover with remaining 1/2 cup enchilada sauce. Bake in oven about 8 minutes, until enchi-ladas are hot. Carefully remove dish from oven, and sprinkle enchiladas with shredded cheese. Return to oven and bake another 5 minutes, or until cheese has melt-ed. Plate those babies and, if you like, top with sour cream and/or scallions. Makes 2 servings.

Chunky Guacamole • 1 small onion, or 2 tablespoons, chopped• 2 garlic cloves, diced• 1 jalapeno pepper, diced• 2 ripe avocados, peeled and diced• 1 lime• 1 medium tomato•Salt and pepper to taste In bowl, combine onion, garlic, and jalapeno pepper (add as much as you’d like, depending on desired “heat”). Add diced avocados and mash all together until desired con-sistency. Leave some avocado pieces for a “chunkier” texture. Squeeze in lime juice. Mix in diced tomatoes and salt and pepper. Makes about 2 cups.

Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with a fiesta at home

You can prepare a simple mango and avocado salsa, perfect for countering the spiciness of your other Cinco de Mayo dishes.

MEN WHO MAKE A DIFFERENCE !Nearly a dozen men from Aquidneck Island will be honored this Friday evening at the 14th Annual “Men Who Make a Difference” gala, taking place at the Hotel Viking in Newport. The event, a benefit for the Women’s Re-source Center of Newport and Bristol Counties, recognizes men throughout Newport and Bristol Counties who are positive role models, who have contributed significantly to the fight against domestic violence, and who cre-ate healthy relationships within their families and communities.

While Fort Adams in Newport has played host to various re-enactment groups depicting battles from the American Revolution through the WWII era, this weekend’s demon-stration reveals to the public what it takes to be a true re-enactor, for the fi rst time. Portraying the 15th Infantry Regiment of the Regular Army, the unit which garrisoned Fort Adams during the Civil War, the New England Brigade will be conducting a Camp of Instruction on the fort’s Parade Field on Satur-day and Sunday. In lieu of battle, the Camp will offer infantry and artillery drills that include a live fi re exercise, as well as several presentations and lectures about various aspects of military life and the duties of a Civil War soldier. Visitors can explore the encampment, where soldiers in au-thentic 19th century uniforms will

invite them to share a day in their life, and to learn about everything from cooking and camp life to mili-tary tactics and guard duties at the Fort during the Civil War. “It’s some-what of a smaller event than the an-nual July re-encampment,” explains Robert McCormack, director of visitor services at Fort Adams Trust. “The New England Brigade will use this as an opportunity to hone their skills; fi ring their cannons and guns. It’s essentially a chance for re-enac-tors to learn how to be reenactors.” New England Brigade Camp of Instruction at Fort Adams, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sat; 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday. Admission: $8 adults, $4 for children 6-17. Family admission (two adults and up to 4 children), $20. Those wishing to attend both days of the Camp are offered half price readmis-sion Sunday.
