THE SPICE OF LIFE Lori Sours’ Salsa Senorita Tastes Like Home to the New Mexico Native
When Lori Sours and her brother moved away from their home state of New Mexico to opposite ends of the country, both missed the authentic southwestern cuisine they’d become so accustomed to. So, when the Mountain Brook mom and her Los Angeles brother found a salsa recipe that reminded them of home, they bottled it and founded Salsa Senorita. Check out some of her recipes to spice up the holidays, and then get inspired by Birmingham Home & Garden’s Inspiration Home, where everything from the floors to the furniture were found locally. See Home, page 34.
