Taste of the Northside Rocks Fiesta

Fiesta is many things to many folks whether it’s a family tradition of staking out a perfect spot for the parades, a night of revelry at NIOSA or simply a backyard fiesta with neighbors and friends. In all cases there’s one thing in common – great food! And yes, often beer and sangria are in the mix…

Fiesta Foodie Favorites

Sure, Fiesta is all about the parties, parades and pageantry. But, it’s also about the food! Check out our Fiesta Foodie Fav Finds right here.

Talk about a perfect party food, check out these easy dishes. Try a Fiesta Pizza Party with this one. Or, how does a Gordita Fiesta sound? Put all the ingredients out so your guests can customize their own. For a fit Fiesta, I love this Chicken Enchilada Surprise from H-E-B.

You won’t find a Fiesta side dish more colorful than a Roasted Corn and Black Bean salad. It’s chilled too…so it’s a perfect way to keep cool! Keep reading for more recipes…..

River of Dreams in San Antonio

This is my favorite of all the Fiesta parades, and one of the most beautiful you’ll see anywhere as the setting is the charming San Antonio River Walk. This year I’ll be emceeing the River Parade along with Maclovio Perez. You can watch the fun festivities LIVE, Monday, April 11 at 7 p.m., on KLRN TV. To see what you missed last year, watch the video. Fiesta gets bigger and better every year. Viva Fiesta!
