The Balancing Act on Lifetime Television Celebrates Cinco de Mayo: Show to Spotlight Fast, Convenient Mexican Food

Mexican food isn’t just for parties and snacks. It’s become a staple in many American homes. BrandStar Entertainment's The Balancing Act on Lifetime Television will tantalize taste buds with some south-of-the-border delicacies.  The show features Kim Ruiz Beck of Ruiz Foods, whose family has been creating Mexican fare for 45 years under the El Monterey label.  The segment will air May 5th or view it anytime at www.thebalancingact.com/elmonterey.

Today’s economy is bringing families back to the dinner table vs. eating out,” says Beck. “El Monterey brand products are perfect for this need.  They are easy to prepare, taste great and offer variety and versatility.”

 

“As a family-owned and operated Mexican food manufacturer, we are pleased to offer Mexican food that brings quality, convenience and value to today’s consumer – a focus we have been committed to for more than 45 years,” explains Beck. “For example, each one of our six El Monterey Family Meals serves five for under $10.”

 

El Monterey’s array of quality frozen Mexican foods is perfect for today’s busy families, whether they are entertaining at home, need a quick snack for the kids or are looking for a delicious breakfast, lunch or dinner with little kitchen prep time.

 

To put viewers in a Mexicali mood, Ruiz whips up some Taquito Ranchero Enchiladas and dips with El Monterey products – just like moms can do right at home.

 

“With Cinco de Mayo just around the corner, it’s a perfect time to hook up with El Monterey’s wide range of authentic Mexican foods,” said Doug Campbell, Executive VP of Programming for BrandStar Entertainment, the producers of The Balancing Act TV show  “We appreciate learning how El Monterey foods offer flexibility for all eating occasions.”
