Grilled Baby Artichokes with Chefs Dressing

Grilled Baby Artichokes with Chefs Dressing by Robyn Medlin

The grill adds so much flavor to the chokes that you don’t really need a sauce, but I am a sucker for a dipping sauce so I made this yummy sauce to go with it inspired by the Chef’s Dressing at Houston’s Restaurant. If you don’t feel like making the dipping sauce, the chokes are perfectly wonderful with a drizzle of olive oil, sea…

Spanakopita Dip by Denise Sherin

So yummy! Great for parties and get togethers. Original recipe is posted here but I leave out the dill because I am not a big fan of dill. Serve with fresh pita bread, toasted pita chips or your favorite dippers breads, crackers or veggies.

Simple Chimichurri Sauce

Simple Chimichurri Sauce by Madi Moreno de Arjona

I have tried a lot of recipes but this has come close, and now thanks to a new restaurant in McAllen "SOLO EMPANADAS", now I can enjoy it when ever I want without having to make it. By the way this tastes great on pork, chicken, toasted…
