Cuban sandwiches are famous for their unique flavors. They typically have pulled pork, ham, swiss cheese, yellow mustard, pickles, and a Cuban-style baguette.

I love Thai food, especially the curries. I have made red, green, tofu, and massaman beef curries many times and have the recipes here for you to try. Out of all the curries I think massaman curry is my favorite. It is relatively easy to make as there are not-too-many ingredients.

I finally tried it as a tart, and discovered that it was really great in such an application.

We tend to have a lot of bananas on our hands. If we don’t eat them fast enough, I end up with lots of ripe bananas. This is not necessarily a problem, as I can put them into smoothies or bake some sort of bread or muffins.

I was looking through some old cook books recently and found a chicken recipe called “bang bang” chicken. The book said it is sold by street vendors in China who summon customers by banging two sticks together (bang bang!).

Several months ago a friend of ours served chicken pot pie at a get together. It came from a local shop and was pretty good! Since then I checked out many recipes on the Internet for inspiration, and developed an easy and flavorful way to make a pot pie in under an hour.
