- Which dishes can be made AHEAD OF TIME?

DO AS MUCH AS YOU CAN AHEAD OF TIMEÂ + GO SHOPPING EARLY!
Luna Favorites
A LUNA TRADITION
Every Christmas Eve, we ALWAYS have Mexican food. It’s tradition!
Although the menu changes up slightly each year, we typically always have the following:
- Enchiladas (chicken, cheese, creamy, etc)
- Tacos or Flautas
- Empanadas
- Spanish Rice
- Chips and salsa (red and green),
To prep for this we always cook the meat up a few days ahead of time and then we will make salsas the day before or the morning of. Enchiladas can also be made ahead of time, and then we do all the frying right before family comes.
