Good start. Try this: J'ai faim de nourriture mexicaine.

*I believe to say "I'm hungry for someting" it is j'ai faim + de + noun (without an article (le/la)). As an adjective, "mexicaine" must be placed after the noun it describes "nourriture"  and match with the noun's gender. La nourriture means food and is grammatically feminine. So mexicaine ends in e in this case.

In French we would actually say “ j’ai envie de nourriture mexicaine” ( I desire Mexican food) not “I’m hungry for Mexican food/ j’ai faim de…”.
