3 Salsas and a Slaw

Now I have always had a fairly addictive love of Chips and Salsa, Eggs and Salsa, Spoon and Salsa and so this post is a natural outgrowth of that love. I will cover how to make 3 salsas; Pico De Gallo, Avocado-Tomatillo and Spicy Red, additionally I will include a cabbage slaw which makes a [ READ MORE ]

Frozen Strawberry Parfait

Looking for a way to combat the heat? This easy to make dessert/breakfast/lunch/treat is just the perfect thing. It combines your love of fresh fruit with your love of staying cool. Let me say that you should not feel limited to using strawberries as I also made this recipe  with peaches with an equally positive [ READ MORE ]

Tilapia Fish Cakes

Cake day continues with this delicious lyric inspired dish. My brain occasionally gets into a loop with song lyrics, and just never seems to let them go. One such lyric mentions tilapia fish cakes and I have wanted to make them since the first time I heard the song some 3 years ago. I ended [ READ MORE ]

Apple Pie

What a post to return with! I had been sick for a decent chunk of the last two weeks and not really motivated to eat, let alone cook and blog about it.  I asked my mother for this recipe in anticipation of entering a pie contest, but ended up not competing. Needless to say this [ READ MORE ]

Shredded Pork with Mole Sauce

Let today be a lesson on reading recipes the night before you are preparing to make them. I stayed up about 2 hours past when I wanted to fall asleep finishing boiling some black beans because I thought that mole sauce had black beans in them. I am still pretty sure of it but I [ READ MORE ]

Profiteroles w/ Chocolate sauce

Mouth Heaven strikes again, and though this dish sounds like some kind of sleep aid pharma drug(pro-fit-eh-roll), it is all of that and more. Easy to whip up and easier to eat. You could even make a batch the morning of a party and freeze/refrigerate them as you can serve them cold with boiling chocolate [ READ MORE ]

Pork Shoulder

My adventures cooking less than typical cuts of meat continues with this dish. I was aiming to cook up a lamb shoulder but market supply dictated that I use pork, and as a bonus pork is generally about 1/3 the price of lamb meat in Tucson. I also had to amend the recipe I was [ READ MORE ]

Mashed Potatoes w/ bastardized sofrito

Generally I have a mashed potato problem. I enjoy them immensely but am pretty sure it is the only thing I am never patient enough with. I decided tonight to do them right and since I was also cooking pork shoulder I would have plenty of time. I always prefer to stay away from the [ READ MORE ]

Baba

When I stumbled across this dish, I was immediately enthralled with the idea of having dessert and assisting my nightly inebriation at the same time. Sadly I have no pictures which is in itself a tribute to how good this tasted, you can even ask my dog who consumed about 1/3 of it while I [ READ MORE ]

Oatmeal, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

Right around the time the afternoon started to get long I got a hankering for some sweet foods, maybe it was yesterday’s fiber fest, or just my natural bio rhythms. I had planned to make paella mixta tonight, but I ate too many of these cookies and so I must defer that dream until tomorrow. [ READ MORE ]
