Make Your Own Edible Art Pieces With This Floral Taco Recipe

Apr 14, 2017

It’s no secret that we at B+C are *obsessed* with tacos.

As an LA native, I grew up going to the local taco man (and, in the latter years, truck). I’d anxiously stand in line with my friends and family — dazzled by the knife skills of the “al pastor man” as he sliced off pineapple from the top of the trompo and skillfully caught each piece on the two tortillas that carried the delicious slices of al pastor meat.

Now that I’m older, I still crave the al pastor tacos from my local taco joints, but the places that offer this particular experience are far and few in SF. Instead, I often find myself saving my taco cravings for LA. Today, I wanted to put a spin on those cravings and create a floral taco recipe, inspired by the springtime super blooms and the delicacies of English tea time. Scroll on below to see how you can make your own edible art pieces.

Trust us: It’ll be a spring party hit!

Ingredients:

  • 12 (corn or flour) tortillas
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • ¼ cup chopped chives, cilantro, and thyme
  • 2 packs of edible flowers
  • 2 avocados
  • 2 ounces honey
  • 1 cup micro arugula
  • 1 cup assorted berries
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 2 ounces ricotta
  • 1 teaspoon salt and pepper

Instructions:

  1. Prep the taco toppings by slicing up the berries, avocados, and cherry tomatoes.
  2. Prep the taco spread by finely chopping up a few sprigs of chives, cilantro, and thyme.
  3. In a medium sized bowl, blend together the cream cheese and herb mix. Add in 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper.
  4. Heat up the tortillas in a frying pan.
  5. Spread the cream cheese mixture onto the tortillas.
  6. Have fun, and mix and match taco toppings!
  7. Top off with your favorite edible flowers.
  8. Finish with a sprinkle of ricotta and a drizzle of honey.

First things first, prep the taco toppings! Slice and dice up the berries, avocados, and cherry tomatoes. Prep the taco spread by finely chopping up a few sprigs of chives, cilantro, and thyme. In a medium sized bowl, blend together the cream cheese and herb mix. Add in one teaspoon of salt and pepper.

When you’ve prepped all the toppings and spread, heat up the pan and fry the tortillas!

Now for the fun part! Create your floral masterpieces by mixing and matching the toppings from your own personal taco bar.

Top off with your favorite edible flowers and a sprinkle of ricotta.

Ditch the plates, and make it a table party! Make sure to serve shortly after finishing your masterpieces. You’ll want the tacos to be eaten while they’re still warm.

For a touch of sweetness, drizzle on some honey!

Dannnng, look at that glaze!

Bon appétit!

Pineapple Pico de Gallo

Sweet and spicy is just a combo we can't pass up. This chunky salsa will accommodate each guest at your Cinco de Mayo parties with bites full of fresh veggies and fruit. (via Cozy Cravings)

Elote

This tasty street food snack is so fun to eat. Grilling gives the corn a nice char and smokey flavor. However, they're getting slathered in mayonnaise and cotija cheese, so they're bound to please any way you make them. (via Sunday Supper Movement)

Crispy Chicken Taquitos with Avocado Crema

These chicken taquitos are the ideal finger food for a Cinco de Mayo party. The contents are inside a rolled tortilla and make a great portable bite for those times when your favorite song comes on and you *have* to bust a move. (via A Cozy Kitchen)

Healthy Seven Layer Taco Dip

Dips really keep the world turning since they're so tasty and easy to scoop up with the swipe of a chip. Stock up on your dippable chips, because this taco dip recipe won't last long. (via Rachl Mansfield)

Brisket Sopes

If you love tacos, you’ll adore sopes. They’re a traditional Mexican dish made from thick rounds of fried masa, and this version is topped with ultra-tender slow-cooked brisket. Crack open a cold cerveza and enjoy. (viaMuy Bueno Cookbook)

Pollo Asado

Savor in the deep, smoky notes of this popular Mexican recipe – pollo asado. Each bite is crusted in spices for a never-boring bite. (via A Spicy Perspective)

Cheesy Avocado Quesadillas

If you’re short on time but still want to party, these quesadillas are just the dish for you. Upgrade the basic cheese ‘dillas you know and love from childhood with avocado slices and seasoned ground beef, for a hearty bite that’s easy to make but still tastes impressive. (via Damn Delicious)

Avocado, Mango, and Shrimp Ceviche

Ceviche is always super light and fresh, and when served during the summery day of Cinco de Mayo, everyone will have you to thank for bringing such a mouthwatering dish to the party. (via Pink Owl Kitchen)

Tomatillo Avocado Salsa with Baked Tortilla Chips

This creamy salsa is like a cross between salsa verde and guacamole. This means it’s highly addictive, so you better have a lot of chips handy. Try it on top of tacos, nachos or even on a torta — this salsa tastes good on *everything*. (via Muy Bueno Cookbook)

Skinny Chile Rellenos

Chile rellenos are stuffed green chiles that then get battered and fried in the best way. Enjoy yours for Cinco de Mayo alongside some rice and beans! (via The Girl On Bloor)

Vegan Mexican Street Corn (Vegan Elote)

If you have some vegan pals pulling up to the party, serve them some plant-based elote for Cinco de Mayo. This recipe retains all the good textures and flavors, too! (via The Edgy Veg)

Easy Restaurant Style White Queso

This ooey, gooey white queso is bound to steal the show at any party thanks to a fiery kick from red pepper flakes and pickled jalapeños. (viaThe Cookie Rookie)

Black Bean and Veggie Tortilla Pizza

Quash two cravings at once with Mexican Pizza. Though it's hard to pinpoint many similarities between this dish and actual pizza (save for its round, open-faced nature), once you take a bite, you'll get it. Cut into slices and share with the fam… or don't share at all. (via Snixy Kitchen)

Mexican Hot Pot with Avocado Crema

For a more hearty addition to your Cinco de Mayo platter, this Mexican hot pot is sure to please anyone. (via Half Baked Harvest)

Ceviche

Use sushi-grade fish for the best taste and peace of mind. Though you’ll be marinating the fish in lime juice, you’ll still want the freshest, best quality product you can get. (via Feasting at Home)

Roasted Vegetable Torta

Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with the most delicious Mexican sandwich around. Some of the bread is scooped out to make extra room for fillings like refried beans, guacamole and cheese. We're okay with that, and we might even suggest saving those bread fillings for sopping up any sandwich spillage. You're welcome. (via Easy Cheesy Vegetarian)

Mexican Street Corn Salad

Forgo the corn on a stick for a less-messy, easy-to-eat elote salad. Add black beans, red onions and bell peppers to make it more salad-like and colorful. Bonus: The dressing uses yogurt instead of mayonnaise and sour cream for a healthy twist. (via Live Eat Learn)

Pozole Rojo

This traditional Mexican soup is full of tender stewed beef, hominy (dried maize) and a super flavorful red chili sauce. It’d be nice if you had leftovers after your Cinco de Mayo festivities, but don’t count on it — this soup doesn’t play around. (via Muy Delish)

Homemade Chalupas

These chalupas are nothing like the kind you'll find at your local Taco Bell. Set out toppings like shredded beef, avocado, salsa and cheese, and let everyone assemble their own. (via The Stay at Home Chef)

Chicken Enchiladas with Salsa Verde

These saucy enchiladas take a little patience to prepare, but they're totally worth it. Invite some friends to make the process fly by. You'll need to fry the tortillas, dunk them in sauce, fill and roll, so you might need to enlist all the kiddos to help. (via Tasting Table)

Delicious Dessert Recipes For Cinco de Mayo Parties

Toasted Rice Horchata with Salted Caramel Drizzle and Coconut Charcoal Whipped Cream

This is technically a drink, but with all of the sugar-infused additions, we must classify it as a totally delectable dessert. Horchata is a rice-based sip that's served with Mexican food, and this upgrade looks phenomenal. (via No Eggs Or Ham)

Churros with Chocolate and Espresso Sauce

What’s better than fried dough and chocolate? If you can come up with something, good for you — we’ll be over here munching on these churros. These amazing, crispy treats are coated in cinnamon sugar and paired with a velvety chocolate and espresso dipping sauce you won’t be able to get enough of. (via Drizzle and Drip)

Churro Ice Cream Cake

Enjoy all the best parts of a churro, but in cake form. Baked churro layers are doused in a sweet, sugary icing for maximum yum factor. (via Amanda Wilens)

Mexican Buñuelos

This Mexican puff pastry cannot be missed at your next Cinco celebration. It's fried, then coated in an addictive cinnamon sugar sprinkling, just like churros. (via Cilantro Parsley)

6 Discontinued Starbucks Items Customers Loved, But Baristas Actually Despised

For every beloved Starbucks item, there’s one that’s equally disliked. Whether they’re menu mainstays or have disappeared forever, Starbucks baristas and customers have some very strong opinions about the many menu items the chain's released over the years. This Reddit thread in particular details the discontinued Starbucks items that fans of The ‘Bux miss “the least” – AKA ones they were more than happy to say goodbye to.

Whether baristas were irked by the process of making them, their general flavor, or customers’ reception of ‘em, these discontinued Starbucks items departed from menus with a sincere “good riddance.”

Scroll on to discover 6 of the “least missed” discontinued Starbucks menu items, according to seasoned baristas.

@Starbucks on Instagram

1. Cloud Macchiato

Launched in collaboration with Ariana Grande back in 2019, the Starbucks Cloud Macchiato featured a fluffy, meringue-like foam topping made by blending nonfat milk, vanilla syrup, and a “cloud powder.” It was available to order in two familiar flavors: caramel and cinnamon.

Several Starbucks baristas noted that they simply did not care for making it, especially because the included cloud powder contained egg. This frustrated many plant-based customers, as the drink couldn’t possibly be made fully vegan.

“Was more annoying to make than anything,” one barista commented on Reddit. “Also they didn’t [really] advertise that it contained egg.”

“Tasted foul, irritating to make, having to explain that it cannot be made vegan (thanks Ariana…), and if it was mobile ordered you were almost guaranteed to receive a deflated cup of disappointment and regret,” another user said.

Starbucks

2. Spicy Refreshers

I got to get a first taste of Starbucks’ Spicy Refreshers when they dropped during the summer of 2024. Admittedly, I didn't think they’d be that good, especially because at the time, it seemed like the chain was grasping at straws to retain their fan base. At the same time the spice-infused Refreshers launched, Starbucks also debuted their (short-lived) boba, and it was just wild. There was also a Spicy Cream Cold Foam included in the launch.

Out of the three Refresher flavors available (dragonfruit, strawberry, and pineapple), the pineapple one tasted the best. The trio turned out to be pretty hit or miss, and lots of fans and baristas agreed.

“Those spicy drinks feel like a fever dream,” one person wrote on Reddit. “Genuinely forgot we had those and forgot how horrible they were.”

Funnily enough, many more people weighed in and said the now-discontinued drinks were only tasty with a shot of tequila included. Fair enough!

Starbucks

3. Oleato (Olive Oil) Drinks

Introduced in January of 2024, Starbucks’ first-of-its-kind Oleato beverages were crafted using extra virgin olive oil. The chain promised a “luxurious and next-level” flavor, but these drinks ended up totally bombing. Many customers and baristas reportednot being able to drink them whatsoever, or simply feeling sick if they did sip ‘em down.

"The barista refunded me after she saw me spit it back into the cup," this Redditor said.

"At my location, NOBODY likes the olive oil," another person noted. "Not even us baristas, it’s disgusting honestly."

Reddit

4. Unicorn Frappuccino

Oh, lord. This discontinued Starbucks drink from 2017 truly needs to be studied. Available for a limited time, the Unicorn Frappuccino went viral for its “flavor-shifting, color-changing" qualities. It was crafted with an insane lineup of ice, milk, pink powder, sour blue powder, crème syrup, mango syrup, and sour blue drizzle – this massive load of sugar concerned plenty of people, too.

A former partner on Reddit verified that the reception of the so-called "famed" Unicorn Frappuccino wasn't all that it was cracked up to be:

"I think the worst part for me was, although it looked cool/pretty, it tasted absolutely horrible," they wrote. "If I recall correctly, it was the thick mango syrup, white chocolate, and some sour blue drizzle. I would say at least half of the customers who actually managed to get one from my store would return them half-full saying it was ‘disgusting’. And honestly, I agreed."

“If you were working in 2014-15, you get 'Nam flashbacks when anyone mentions unicorns or mermaids," another barista commented.

Starbucks

5. Toasted Vanilla Syrup

Discontinued at the end of 2023 for being generally unpopular, Starbucks' Toasted Vanilla syrup wasn’t quite well-received by baristas.

“That toasted vanilla smelled like every middle school mean girl ever, and it tastes like butt,” one person commented.

“Can’t believe I completely blocked the toasted vanilla out of my memory,” another said. “Sh-t was so nasty.”

Ashley Burk

6. Kiwi Starfruit Refresher

Crafted with green coffee extract, ice, and kiwi pieces, the long-gone Starbucks Kiwi Starfruit Refresher hit menus in 2020, but sadly fell off in favor of other Refresher flavors like pineapple and blackberry. Several Starbucks baristas were happy to see it go since it tasted so bad.

“I remember making it when I was training and thinking, ‘this shit smells like battery acid.,’” someone commented.

How To Have The Best Weekend In LA, According To A Local


We're thrilled to kick off our new Jetset Journeys series, where we turn the best U.S. cities to explore this year into our own personal playgrounds. This is not just a travel guide but a way to spark your creativity and your wanderlust for weekend and week-long travel. Pack your bags , join us here every week, and get jetsetty this summer.

You could visit Los Angeles, California 100 times and have 100 totally different experiences. With a city as sprawling and diverse as LA, it's naive to arrive at LAX and expect to cover it all over a weekend. On the flip side, once you start researching what to do in LA, it can be overwhelming to decide what to prioritize for your 48-hour getaway.

That's where I come in. I relocated from New York to Los Angeles — I know, how original — six years ago. In my time planting roots on the west coast and rebuilding my community in this eternally-sunny city, I've been lucky enough to experience the countless wonders that make Los Angeles such an essential travel destination (and home to some 3.8 million residents). Between lush hiking trails that lead to the ocean, rich cultural histories and Hollywood lore at every corner, and some of the best food on the planet, there's a lot to take in.

I've also played host to many friends and family over the last six years and have nearly perfected the 48-hour itinerary for a satisfying trip to Los Angeles. If you're seeking an adventure outside of the typical tourist traps, keep reading for some of my favorite local haunts to add to your Los Angeles bucket list.

Where To Stay In LA: Silver Lake Pool & Inn

Image via Silver Lake Pool & Inn

First things first, where should you stay when visiting LA? I recommend choosing a hotel central to all of your saved spots to avoid spending your trip stuck in traffic. As a Silver Lake resident, many of my recs are on the east side of Los Angeles. With that in mind, if you're not crashing with friends or family, I definitely recommend you check out Silver Lake Pool & Inn. The Pali Society property opened in Silver Lake a few years ago and has everything you need for a restful and comfortable stay. Situated in hip Sunset Junction, you're footsteps away from Erewhon (try the Hailey Bieber Strawberry Glaze smoothie, you won't regret it), Intelligentsia Coffee, Cafe Stella, and Donald Glover's new boba shop, Jellyman. In addition to gorgeous rooms, an elevated pool deck, and an Italian outdoor restaurant on the property, Silver Lake Pool & Inn also hosts Marco Polo Late Nights on Fridays with DJs and cocktail specials flowing until 1 a.m.

The Best Coffee Shops In LA: Canyon Coffee

Image via Canyon Coffee

Next on the agenda: where to go for a good cup of coffee in Los Angeles? Well friend, you'll be spoiled for choice in this caffeinated wonderland. Los Angeles boasts some of the most aesthetically-pleasing and well-reviewed coffee shops in America, so switch it up each morning by trying out a variety of our local faves. At Canyon Coffee in Echo Park (pictured above), it's not uncommon to be standing in line between chatty French tourists and off-duty models. It's the cool-kid choice for good reason, with delish oat chai lattes on draught, solid drip coffee, and effortless toast toppings like cinnamon butter and cacao nibs. Other crowd-pleasers includeMaru Coffee, which is famous for their cloud cream foam tops. They have three locations in Los Feliz, Arts District and Beverly Hills. Cafe Nido is another Silver Lake hotspot with an indoor-outdoor design that takes inspiration from Mexico City with canopied trees, wood paneling, and teal-tiled benches. You can't go wrong with a pastry or baguette with your go-to coffee order.

What To Do In Los Angeles: Mid-Century Modern Architecture Tours

If you're looking for a culturally-rich experience to add to your LA itinerary, get tickets for a 30-minute architecture tour of Richard Neutra's VDL House located in Silver Lake. With a $15 donation, you can immerse yourself in gorgeous mid-century modern design and learn something new.

The Best Free Museum In LA: MOCA

Photo by Alison Ives

The Museum of Contemporary Art in DTLA is one of my favorite destinations for a creative reset in Los Angeles. General admission is always free, and you can delight in some of truly neat exhibitions like Carlos Cruz-Diez' Chromosaturation light and color experience, pictured above.

Where To Experience Nature In LA: Silver Lake Reservoir

Photo by Alison Ives

The VDL House is conveniently located across the street from the Silver Lake reservoir. Post-tour, walk the stunning (and mostly flat) two-mile loop for a breath of fresh air and fun people watching. Silver Lake is home to many industry folks, actors, and musicians, so keep an eye out for a rare celeb sighting!

The Best Restaurants For Dinner In LA: Saffy's

Image via Saffy's LA

All of that adventuring will no doubt have you working up an appetite. For dinner, I highly recommend Saffy's LA in Virgil Village. This Middle Eastern restaurant is ideal for enjoying shared plates and trying a little bit of everything. Menu standouts include two unique hummus dishes, the little gem salad, and the beef skewers prepared at a wood-burning hearth with superb flavor. The design beautifully blends art deco architecture with Moroccan flair, making the ambiance and the feast all the more worth savoring.

Where To Eat In Los Angeles: Quarter Sheets

Photo by Maggie Shannon

Quarter Sheets in Echo Park is one of the best restaurants to pop up in LA in recent years. Don't believe me? The New York Times even said so! As many like to tease, LA can be hit or miss when it comes to pizza. But the Quarter Sheets pizza parlor, founded by Aaron Lindell and Hannah Ziskin, knocks it out of the park with their thick, Sicilian-style pan pies and crave-able desserts.

My New Yorker husband and New Yorker father-in-law both agree Quarter Sheets is the best pizza they've ever had. Now if that ain't praise, I don't know what is! Pro tip: go early if you want to avoid the weekend lines. And order all of the desserts. Take 'em home if you have to, but don't leave without trying the Princess Cake or divine choco chip cookie.

Best Tacos In Los Angeles

Photo by Alison Ives

It's impossible to talk about what to do in LA without hyping up the authentic Mexican food scene. While most of the best taco joints are locals-only hidden gems that line boulevards in unbranded taco tracks, or sit parked outside of car washes, there are a few must-hit taco spots everyone should know about in Los Angeles.

Guisados is lauded as one of the best taquerias in LA, for good reason. With multiple locations throughout the city, Guisados can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Their handmade tortillas make every bite all the more flavorful. They also have one of the best horchatas if you want a sip of something deliciously sweet. For Tijuana-style tacos, Tacos 1986 is another easy grab and go bite. Their mushroom taco is an all-time fave for me. If you're looking for something more off-the-beaten path, head to DTLA and traverse the back alley of Mexican restaurant Damian to discover Ditriot Taqueria(pictured above), which boasts a delicious Mexico City-inspired flair. Whatever you do, do not leave Los Angeles without grabbing a street taco (or two!).

Where To Shop In Los Angeles: Larchmont Village

Photo by Alison Ives

If you're like me and you can't visit a city without bopping around to a few cute little shops, head to Larchmont Village. It's inspired by the New York neighborhood of the same name and is a neat row of beauty stores, bookshops, cafes, and unique boutiques. Shorthand is a color-coded stationery store worth adding to your list, as is the Black-founded beauty boutique, Thirteen Lune. Chevalier Books (LA's oldest indie bookstore) is another can't-miss spot to explore on your shopping crawl in Larchmont Village.

Well friends, I hope this thought-starter list of what to do in LA has given you plenty of food for thought. If you want more personalized recommendations or have any questions, DM me @colourwars on Instagram and I'd be happy to help. Safe travels!

Follow along for all your travel needs with our Flights of Fancy series and Jetset Journeys series.

Everything You Need To Know About 'The Pitt' Season Finale After THAT Cliffhanger

It hasn't been difficult at all to lock into new episodes of The Pitt on Max. We might all be familiar with medical dramas by this point, but what sets The Pitt apart is that each episode covers one hour of a single night's shift — and this is basically the most intense shift of all time. And season 1, episode 14, "8:00 PM," ended with another major cliffhanger: Dr. McKay getting arrested for messing with her ankle monitor. We don't have to wait long to find out what happens to McKay, Whittaker, and Robby because The Pittseason finale airs next week!

Here's everything you need to know about how and when to watch The Pitt season 1 finale, airing on Max April 10, 2025.

Where can I watch The Pitt season finale?

Warrick Page/Max

What happened at the end of The Pitt episode 14?

Warrick Page/Max

The Pitt episode 14, "8:00 P.M." ended on quite the cliffhanger after the ER team was hard at work to help the victims of the Pitt Fest shooting. Because after her ankle monitor begins beeping during the mass influx of patients, Dr. McKay hijacks it — and ends up in handcuffs by the time the credits roll.

"Even filming it was humiliating, because it was this flood of remembering that you are not good enough," actress Fiona Dourif toldVariety. "And then very quickly it became rage at the situation and the injustice of it. Still the inner thread of it is that it was my fault. Mostly, it’s just utter humiliation that it is happening in front of everybody."

How many episodes are there of The Pitt on Max?

Warrick Page/Max

The Pitt season 1 will have 15 episodes total, and they're each named after the hour they cover. Here's the full list of The Pitt episodes:

Who's in The Pitt cast?

Warrick Page/Max

The Pitt cast is a true standout on TV this year, and the list includes:

  • Noah Wyle as Dr. Michael "Robby" Robinavitch: a senior member of the staff who's trying to keep his head above water.
  • Fiona Dourif as Dr. Cassie McKay: a 42-year-old second-year resident at the ER.
  • Gerran Howell as Dennis Whitaker: a fourth-year medical student working with the Pitt team.

  • Supriya Ganesh as Dr. Samira Mohan: one of the ER's third-year residents.
  • Shabana Azeez as Victoria Javadi: a 20-year-old third-year medical student.

Where did The Pitt film?

Warrick Page/Max

The Pitt was mainly filmed on a soundstage in Burbank, California, but some of the exterior shots were taken in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! The show filmed in 2024, and the cast was spotted in Pittsburgh in September 2024.

Will there be a season 2 of The Pitt?

Warrick Page/Max

Yes, The Pitt season 2 is coming to Max! “We’re excited and delighted with the audience response for our first season of THE PITT and can’t be more appreciative of our partners at Max and Warner Bros. Television for all of their extraordinary support throughout our first season," John Wells, R. Scott Gemmill, and Noah Wyle said in a statement.

Is The Pitt a sequel to ER?

Warrick Page/Max

The Pitt isn't officially an ER sequel (despite the fact lead actor Noah Wyle was on the 90s drama). However, members of the estate of late author Michael Crichton (who wrote the OG screenplay for ER) alleged The Pitt was created as a sequel, without their permission. And the estate sued the creators of The Pitt in August 2024, according to TODAY.

“The Pitt is ER. It’s not like ER, it’s not kind of ER, it’s not sort of ER. It is ER complete with the same executive producer, writer, star, production companies, studio, and network as the planned ER reboot," says the lawsuit. "No one has been fooled."

Tune into The Pitt season finale on April 10 and read up on The 1923 Season Finale, premiering on Paramount+ April 6.
