Pizza, pizza, pizza!!! I love pizza! When I was a kid I always went for a slice of the thick dough Sicilian square. I haven’t had Sicilian pizza in years. So when I found out my Hubby loved thick pizza too I was off and running to make us one of my childhood favorites… Continue reading
It is especially true at this time of year when we have so many things to do… whether it is making cookies, decorating, planning and attending parties, shopping for all our loved ones and racing against the clock…to become so engulfed in what we are doing that we forget to be in the moment with the ones we love. Holding on to the illusion that we always have to be in control robs us of why we are doing all this in the first place. That is why it is even more important now than at any other time of the year to keep things simple, be present in the moment and enjoy your family and friends. Linda and I have learned over the years what is important and what we need to simply let go of. It’s time to enjoy the Christmas season…so we encourage you to do what you can and forget the rest.

Here’s another one of our favorite Latin dishes…Ropa Vieja…a Cuban dish meaning ‘old clothes’ that takes a flank steak and braises it in a rich tomato broth with vegetables until the flank steak is so tender that you can pull it apart with a fork. I typically serve this dish with Rice & Black Beans and Maduros on the side. Then the very next day we wrap up the leftover Ropa Vieja along with the Rice & Black Beans in large tortillas and have ourselves delicious burritos! Love those leftovers… Continue reading
Now that Thanksgiving is over, the turkey is almost gone and I’m 5 pounds in regret… It’s time to spend at least a week before the Christmas cookies start to be everywhere that I need to give my body a rest. This soup is just that kind of soup. Full of flavor, veggies and beans, your body will say… thank you! I hope you give this soup a try and if you love beans you will love this soup. I serve it with some fresh rosemary bread and a lot of LOVE… Continue reading

Here we are again… Turkey leftovers! Every year I make the same mistake. I make more bird than the people I invite.

With so many people coming for Thanksgiving dinner and arriving the night before, I wanted to make a dish a day in advance that could be popped in the oven for guests when they arrive from their long journeys. Manicotti is not as hard as some think when you do a few simple tips… Continue reading
I know, I know, Thanksgiving is right around the corner and I should be posting something I’m going to make for Thanksgiving but in my house it’s Taco Tuesday! My favorite day of the month and I just can’t help myself!! This is the time when I get to experiment with different flavors of tacos. On tonight’s menu are Pork Carnitas. Traditionally, Pork Carnitas are made with heavy cuts of pork such as shoulder or butt that are well seasoned and braised for several hours, then pulled apart. But today’s Pork Carnitas cook much quicker and are still just as delicious. Seasoned ground pork does its job well in these tasty tacos…A very quick and tasty meal today since Thursday we’ll be on our feet all day cooking… Continue reading
