Yes, the heat has wrapped its sticky fingers around us, but food can be a relief as well as a chore in the heat. Here are 22 recipes that all offer nourishment and deliciousness, and that will cool you down, too.

BEST Mexi Place in Logan

Fresh. Cheap. Clean.

Yes.

Chispita Bakery

Panaderia Mexicana

41 W 1000 N

Logan, UT 84341

Phone: (435) 755-6853

Their fruit empinatas are okay, but their TACOS are to die for. Fresh, hot meat on new corn tortillas with the real Mexican salsa on the side and a squirt of Lime -- oooooh. You can get 4 tacos, a soda, and an empinata with complimentary chips and salsa for under $5. You'll forget you're in the Rockies with the World Cup airing in Spanish, blaring music of muchachas, and the front grocer full of paper candies, Mexi magazines, Mary Candles, and glove less food handlers. Viva La Mexico!

The decor could use a little work, but at least the sombreros are authentic. :)
