Get the fiesta started with these delicious Cinco de Mayo recipes

AOL.com Editors

Finally, the day we've all been waiting for is here.

Everyone's favorite holiday, Cinco de Mayo, has finally arrived and we couldn't be more grateful. We're welcoming the holiday with open arms and empty glasses, ready to celebrate with tons of guacamole, margaritas and a couple bowls of queso. What's a Cinco de Mayo party (socially-distanced, of course) without the food?

Admittedly, for us, a big part of the holiday is the food. But we're not just talking about your average taco here. We're mixing it up this holiday with a couple of delicious spins on all our classic favorites. From easy 5 ingredient queso dip to homemade corn and goat cheese empanadas, you've definitely never celebrated like this.

So, hold up your salt-rimmed glasses, slice into a fresh avocado and get the party started.
