Global Flavors, Soups & Budget Dinners

Camila Rivera, global home cooking – Latin-leaning dinners, soups, stews and budget sides.

Profile:

Camila Rivera's recipes start with everyday ingredients and let seasoning do the work. Much of her collection sits in the Global category: Mexican lasagna with corn tortillas, beef enchilada casserole, crock pot taco casserole, Spanish rice and a chipotle chicken stew. Alongside those are black bean chili, taco soup and a classic poor man's soup, which place her in Soups & Stews as well, with a few beef and chicken dinners in between.

The common thread is practicality. Recipes list a serving count or a total time in the title, lean on affordable ingredients, and often finish with something fresh, such as lime juice, cilantro or a spoonful of sauce, so slow-cooked dishes taste lively rather than flat. Side dishes get real attention too: herbed potatoes with garlic, Mexican cornbread baked in a skillet, and rice cooked to a fluffy texture.

Not everything is savory. Strawberry applesauce and a lemon pound cake with a zesty crumb show up in her mix, handy for a weeknight dessert or a potluck. Browse her latest recipes below to find a dinner that fits your budget and your schedule.
