German Style Red Cabbage by Simona Torian

The Classic Cuban Picadillo by Lindaraxa (Not published)

Pin ItEveryone has been waiting for me to crack open the family safe and publish some of my grandmother's recipes. The problem is that they are too complicated for this day and age and people just don't have the time to cook like that. Recipes nowadays have been simplified and shortened and, in most cases, they taste just as…

Simple Nanaimo Bars by Gourmet Mama (Not published)

Having grown up just a stone’s throw away from the town of Nanaimo (ok, more like a ferry ride and a short drive), I am particularly fond of these Canadian sweets. They do seem to require a lot of ingredients, though, so the other night when I whipped up a batch, I just stuck to the very basics. These are quick and easy to make, even…

Chocolate Chip Jam Bars by Tracy (Not published)

| E-mail| Filed under chocolate, jamI made these bars last week when we had some friends over, and I still can’t get them out of my head (ask my husband, I’ve wanted to make them again every day this week).

Salsa, baby! by Amanda @ Maritime Cowgirl

Thought I should make some munchies in case I decide to stay home tonight. UFC is tonight, and I am undecided if I should stay home or head to Boston Pizza. So just in case, I made Pioneer Woman's Restaurant Style Salsa. Ooohhh, is it ever good! I am not a big fan of chunky salsa, so this works just perfect for me. Good for those who…

Authentic Greek chicken souvlaki by Erin Berdan

The second dish on my Greek menu is chicken souvlaki. With a simple four ingredients, this chicken is full of flavor, especially when served with homemade tzatziki. It wasn't in Greece that I fell in love with chicken souvlaki, but rather at Pithari Taverna in Highland Park, NJ. Grilled to perfection, it's juicy and flavorful - and I…
