This bread is one of the easiest and tastiest treats I’ve ever made or eaten. I’ve been making this bread for the past 20 years and don’t recall where I learned it.

Egg Drop Soup
One of my favorite things about going out to a Chinese restaurant is getting piping-hot egg drop soup to start out the meal. You need few ingredients to make this but the taste is amazing when it’s done right.

Potato Leek Soup (Vichyssoise)
In 2004 I was living in Wisconsin and one day was eating lunch at work with a co-worker who grew up in Denmark. She had a very delicious-smelling soup that I had never seen before. She offered me a taste and said it was called Vichyssoise.

Chicken Enchiladas
We celebrated my husband’s birthday this week with lots of friends at our house that we’ve known for a long time. I decided to make the group some of our favorite Mexican dishes like pork carnitas and chicken tinga. It was hard for me to calculate how much food to buy and I ended up buying too many rotisserie chickens (3) for making the chicken tinga.

One Pan Sausage and Vegetable Dinner
My pantry is full of spices and spice mixes from all over the world. Many of them were given to me by friends who know how much I love to cook and experiment with new flavors.
Some of the best mixes come from Penzeys Spices and today I feature their Ozark Style Seasoning. It is a Southern U.S. style blend of black peppers, numerous herbs, and salt. I have been using it to make the most delicious roasted vegetables one can imagine. The balance of spices is incredible and I use it below in this recipe.

Pork Riblet Curry
This week while I was cruising down the meat isle I saw a lot of pork riblet packages with prices that were reasonably low. I couldn’t resist picking up a package to try out, even though I don’t normally buy pork riblets. I’m so glad I did though. Pork riblets are trimmed pieces from spare ribs. They are easy to cook and they cost much less than a rack of ribs. The package I picked up was pretty meaty without much fat.

Chow mein is a Chinese noodle dish that is very popular around the world. You might find this dish combined with meat, tofu, or just stir-fry veggies. Whichever way you try it, this dish is very delicious — especially since you customize it to your liking.

Cuban Style Pork Burger
Cuban sandwiches are famous for their unique flavors. They typically have pulled pork, ham, swiss cheese, yellow mustard, pickles, and a Cuban-style baguette. This is then grilled with a press until the cheese melts. Today I am going to try something different — making a Cuban burger that has a lot of the same flavorings.

Red Chicken Curry Soup
Many years ago we often went out to a Thai restaurant and got a big bowl of Thai chicken noodle soup. It was just $3.95, which tells you how many years ago that must have been. The soup was cheap, spicy, delicious, and very filling.

Massaman Chicken Curry
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 start with a store-bought curry paste to cut down the time and cost. I have found that ready-made Thai curry pastes are plenty good enough when you crave restaurant-quality food at home!
