	Easy Sour Cream Biscuits by Salad Foodie Quick to the table because there's no cutting of shortening into flour mixture. Just stir in sour cream, knead lightly, pat out, cut and bake. Couldn't be simpler to get homemade biscuits on the table. I like to use up the tail end of the sour cream this way.	18 votes 7 reviews 5 comments 123755 views
	Simple Cuban Black Beans & Rice in a Rice Cooker by John Spottiswood I've loved cuban black beans and rice ever since I lived in Weehawken, New Jersey and ate at the Unica Cafe. This recipe takes some short cuts and uses a rice cooker, but I still think the results are delicious. Try this under any caribbean grilled meat, fish or stew and you won't be disappointed!	5 votes 2 reviews 5 comments 60888 views
	THE Bacardi Rum Cake.....adjusted for today's box cake mixes by Salad Foodie Several years ago Bacardi’s Rum Cake recipe used an 18 ½ ounce cake mix and box of instant vanilla pudding mix.

	Nanny Burgers by Denise Sherin This is a simple dish my Nanny (grandmother) always made and my Mom made them for us, and now I make them for my son. They are just hamburgers baked in brown gravy. But the trick is to flour the burgers and brown them before baking. It makes the burgers soft and juicy but it helps keep the gravy thickened during baking. We serve…	1 vote 1 comment 6708 views
	Guava Filling by Yolanda Fernandez Guava cake filling is made from guava paste. This filling is very rich and is quite in par with the Dominican cake but can be used for any other cake.	1 vote 28276 views
	Cuban-style Steaks in Garlic-Lime Marinade by John Spottiswood These steaks are a treat and a great way to make an inexpensive cut of meat memorable. You can use bottom round (best), top round, or a thin cut sirloin for this dish. The steaks should be cut about a 1/2 thick. Mine were a little thicker, so I pounded them with a mallet to thin them. In Cuban restaurants, this recipe is called…	5 votes 4 reviews 7 comments 57875 views

More to…	79 votes 32 reviews 35 comments 56536 views
	Good Stuff Dessert (a chocolate pudding trifle) by Salad Foodie Years ago a friend gave me this recipe saying it is as the name says, truly “Good Stuff.” Layers start with a pecan crust, then a cream cheese filling, chocolate pudding layer and a whip topping. As a dessert it’s a real “looker,” but the taste tells you this is one luscious “icebox” cake. The name doesn’t do this one justice ~…	5 votes 2 reviews 2 comments 18631 views
	Mon Gateau Au Chocolat by Ali El Safy An absolutely wonderful cake; most traditionally served without icing. If you're including kids, might want to add your favorite, but I love it the "old school" way!	31 votes 17 reviews 8 comments 53887 views
	Vanilla Custard Sauce (British) by Marlin Rinehart This sauce is served over steamed puddings, fruit crisps (crumbles), and any dessert that would be enhanced by a creamy vanilla sauce. It's the perfect homemade replacement for Byrd's Custard powder. One warning, however: 1) use a small, "thick-bottom" saucepan, and 2) cook over low heat and don't allow the mixture to boil or it will…	4 votes 2 reviews 1 comment 35775 views
	Dominican Cake by Yolanda Fernandez The Dominican is the most popular in the Dominican Republic. Dominican-Americans here in the the States also make it and sell it by the pound. It is a heavy cake but the frosting is light and fluffy.	2 votes 28551 views

	Cowboy Caviar by Lynn Yamamoto This is fresh, healthy and delicious. People love it, even kids. You can make it ahead, so it's great for a summer party. Serve it with scoop-shaped tortilla chips, or have it on the side as a relish. I add extra cilantro, because there can never be too much cilantro!	106 votes 44 reviews 13 comments 192150 views
