Have you seen the new Chili’s Fresh Mex Menu?  The girls love going to Chili’s but we don’t seem to go very often so I was happy when I heard about the new menu because I just had to check it out.  I love Southwest flavored food and Chili’s is my favorite place to get my fix.   I think it was the first of its type in the area and I just prefer it the most.

Chili’s has always been known for bold, Southwest flavors and if you are looking for a fresh take on the Tex Mex cuisine, then you must go to Chili’s!   They’ve created two Fresh Mex bowls — the Chipotle Chicken Fresh Mex Bowl and the Margarita Chicken Fresh Mex Bowl – as well as Enchiladas and create-your-own Southwest Pairings starting at $8.  Yes, you read that right the pairing start at only $8 a dish!  That’s an awesome price and definitely in my ‘eating out price range’.

So I got the Create your own Southwest Pairings with a Cheese Enchilada and Beef Enchilada.  This comes with black beans and rice is is the perfect size.  I love the corn salsa they put on top too!

For the Southwest Pairings you have a choice of either 2 or 3 of the following:

  • Green Chile Chicken Enchilada – filled with seasoned chicken and Monterey Jack cheese and topped with green chile sauce, melted three-cheese blend, chopped cilantro, house-made corn and black bean salsa.
  • Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada – filled with seasoned chicken and Monterey Jack cheese and topped with sour cream sauce, melted three-cheese blend, chopped cilantro, house-made corn and black bean salsa.
  • Beef Enchilada – filled with taco seasoned beef, three-cheese blend and onion and topped with ancho sauce, melted three-cheese blend, chopped cilantro, house-made corn and black bean salsa.
  • Cheese Enchilada – filled with a three-cheese blend and diced onion and topped with ancho-chile sauce, melted three-cheese blend and chopped cilantro.
  • Tostada – Taco seasoned beef or seasoned chicken with fresh shredded lettuce, house-made pico de gallo, three-cheese blend and black beans topped with chopped cilantro, fresh avocado slices and a drizzle of cumin-lime sour cream on a crispy corn tortilla dusted with southwestern spices.
  • Crispy Taco – Taco seasoned beef or seasoned chicken, fresh shredded lettuce, three-cheese blend, house-made pico de gallo, chopped cilantro and a fresh avocado slice in a crispy corn tortilla dusted with southwestern spices.

My husband choose a trio of Enchilada’s too…

The girls love the cheese Quesadilla’s and usually have those.  They are always happy and ready to pose for a picture for me as you can see below…

I think if I don’t take a picture of them while out to eat, they don’t feel that the dinner is complete.  Myself on the other hand, I don’t feel a dinner is complete at Chili’s if I don’t have a Margarita…
