I’ve had Banh Mi on my mind recently. At this point, venturing out for a Banh Mi, is foolishly indulgent, no matter how good it is. And these are good! Solution? Make some for the The Latin Lover and me. To that end, a meatloaf seemed like the place to start. This is that meatloaf. Continue reading

Sloppy Joe’s are one of those wonderful memories we have from childhood. I love them. I still do. I like mine on potato rolls, with slices of raw onion, dill pickle slices and potato chips on the side. MMM…what a wonderful memory! Continue reading

The Spicy Honey loves, loves, loves Bolognese sauce. And admittedly, I’ve never been particularly happy with my previous attempts. They were just ho-hum. This one…I’m very happy with, and I think you might be, too! Continue reading

Small meatballs are a great tapa. This is a really nice blend to form into patties for breakfast sausages, either with or without the mustard-cream sauce…though, you know…it’s all about the sauce! Or it should be. Continue reading

You may remember, in the past…yes, The Goddess is a deity with a past! Everyone has a past, and goddess-willing, it’s interesting and rich with memories. Anyway, there were a couple of posts for Boliche and Boliche, Deconstructed, as well as picadillo. This is simply boliche in meatloaf form. An experiment going deliciously well! Continue reading

I hope you are familiar with the Asian chef, Ming Tsai. He did a series on PBS and he had a restaurant in the Boston area, Blue Ginger. Anyway, this is based on a recipe from one of his books. They are so good, sloppy and just plain delicious. I think they’re better the next day. Continue reading

The weather outside is frightful! Chili is just this thing to take a bite out of the cold. I know we’ve explored Chili with all the Good Stuff! in the past. Though similar, this version is much closer to the chili my mother made, out there on the Prairie. I make us sound like the Wilder’s from “Little House on the Prairie”, don’t I? However, I don’t recall that they made chili! Continue reading

I forget about meatloaf and I don’t know why. We love it. It’s goes together quickly. It practically bakes itself and damn, it’s just so delicious. And best of all, it makes great sandwiches. I’ve already given you Roadhouse Meatloaf, but you should have this one, too. Continue reading

I can’t believe I haven’t posted this before. Yes, The Goddess was holding out on you, and after you make this you’ll be ticked that she did. But, she’s trying to redeem herself here. It’s time to share. These will grace your appetizer table over and over. The combinations of flavor and texture are just sublime. Continue reading
