Have you ever wanted to throw a party but you just didn't have time to plan? Worry no more! We have all the scoop on how to throw an #InstantFiesta - complete with margaritas, tasty snacks and even simple tips to decorate your home!
Plus, enter to win a Rubbermaid FreshWorks set to keep your veggies fresh & a $50 Visa gift card to buy fiesta supplies!
No party would be complete without a refreshing drink. And here's our secret to delicious margaritas, made in no time at all:
Mix 3 parts mixer to 1 part tequila with an extra "part" of Gran Gala or Grand Marnier. Add in the juices and throw in a lime wedge. Drink up!
The easiest way to feed party-goers is with chips and dips. Take your pick from the following three. All are easy to throw together in no time. And in case you do have time to shop in advance, we love the Rubbermaid FreshWorks to keep our fruits and veggies fresh until we have time to cut them.
Rotel Cheese Dip
Corn & Black Bean Salad
Combine all the ingredients. Let stand 15 minutes before serving. This one is especially good for an outdoor party on a hot day since the frozen corn stays cool for a bit.
Make-your-own taco bars are the best! Just cook some ground beef or turkey and put it out with some hard and soft shells and your favorite fixin's, such as: lettuce, tomato, shredded cheese, black olives, sour cream and salsa. As a side, try this deliciously refreshing salad:
Jalapeno Mint Salad
You can buy decorations or just look around the house for something appropriate. A brightly colored scarf can work as a table runner. Succulent plants look beautiful too. Or even try edible decorations, such as avocados or a mix of colored peppers in a festive bowl.
