Cuban-style Steaks in Garlic-Lime Marinade by John SpottiswoodThese steaks are a treat and a great way to make an inexpensive cut of meat memorable.

In Cuban restaurants, this recipe is called… |

Simple Cuban Black Beans & Rice in a Rice Cooker by John SpottiswoodI'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! |

Dutch West Indies Chicken Kebabs - Boka Dushi by John SpottiswoodThis dish offers an amazing collage of flavors blending Indonesian, Portuguese, Spanish and West African flavors. Personally, I prefer the marinade and dipping sauce on these kebabs to traditional Indonesian satay. The heavy sweetness of the Indonesian peanut sauce is replaced by a tangy, spicy and slightly sweet mixture of peanuts,… |

Cremitas de Leche / Light Caramel Milk Cookies by Gloria RodriguezOriginally from: http://www.mundorecetas.com/recetas-de-cocina/recetas-postt21091.html I did everything right, except, I took them out just a bit too soon. If it's still too gooey, do not lower the flame, get it so that you can see more of the pan when you stir (not just the edges) and that the texture is thick and sticky. |

Thumbs up from Mrs. Herb Garden too who is currently… |

My poor aloe vera plants have curled up, my hibiscus blossoms are droopy… |
