Life is an incredible adventure
Carne Asada simply means grilled meat. Layered on a corn tortilla, with the freshest of toppings. San Diego is given credit for thinking of piling Carne Asada on French Fries, with the usual Mexican style toppings – Pico de Gallo, Guacamole, Grated Cheese/Cojita, Jalapeño Crema, …
Middle Eastern flavours dominate these simple, savoury Harissa Meatballs. We adapted Anna Stockwell’s recipe and love to serve them over Lemon Yogurt Sauce, with a sprinkle of Gremolata and Socca on the side. Slow Roasted Tomatoes are the perfect vegetable.
Simple meals are the best for hot days! Summer along with smoke from forest fires arrived here all in the same week. We went from braising to barbecuing in a matter of days. Grill baguette or buns to serve alongside this quick and easy meal.
Beef Tenderloin or Filet Mignon is one of the most expensive cuts of beef. Its low-fat content is prone to over-cooking, so don’t get too busy visiting with the company. Tenderloin should not be cooked past an internal temperature of 140.
A sweet and tangy tomato-based sauce, there are as many recipes for Sloppy Joe’s as there are cooks. How much sweet and tangy is up for debate. What isn’t debated are the basic ingredients, ground beef, tomato-based sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire Sauce and brown sugar.
These classic Italian street foods essentially lead to the same type of meal. Meat on a skewer or stick. There are as many ways to cook Spiedini’s as there are to serve them. Simple and delicious, marinate the meat or not, no recipe is necessary.
Rotel Mexican Style Tomatoes date back to the 1940’s. Available now in various spice levels, the original recipe with zesty green chilies and spices does heat up a dish. Rotel Tomatoes are not the same as salsa, and became a famous addition to queso.
We love Beef Simmering Ribs, skipping the bone and lots of fat! Make a day ahead if you prefer. Serve ribs in pieces or shredded with 2 forks.
