  • Beef Caldereta

    Beef Caldereta

    This dish is the epitome of comfort. It reminds me of our old Christmas’ when all the Lolas cooked and this may be my favorite dish from those days. I left out the olives because the kids weren’t into them but if you don’t have picky eaters, don’t leave them out. Beef Caldereta 2 lbs […]

  • Salmon Chowder

    Salmon Chowder

    It’s nearing the end of salmon season on the NorCal coast and every year we stock the freezer with a big one. We get a whole fish and all the pieces that don’t make it into fillets end up making this soup. You don’t have to get a whole salmon to make this. Most grocery […]

    Tamales (A Very Healthy and delicious Version)

    I did a thing last week. I stopped everything and spent a week at The Ranch in Malibu. We hiked over 55 miles, climbed a total of 8k feet, ate vegan, focused on health both for our bodies and souls and drank a ton of water, water, water. We were all floored by how delicious […]

    Spicy Ahi Poke

    I posted a poke recipe before and it’s great. This time, I tried making a version we recently had in Oahu called the CA roll poke. It’s the perfect combination of fresh and decadent. Make this and eat it over rice or salad. 1/2 lb sushi grade ahi tuna, diced into 1/2” chunks 1/4 cup […]

  • Miso Eggplant

    Miso Eggplant

    Do you ever crave eggplant? One of my friends back in the 90’s told me it had addictive properties (like nicotine, or something). I believed her. Less so now but I definitely crave it often. This recipe is a good alternative to the dips and addition to veggie stews. Miso Eggplant Adapted from justonecookbook.com 3-4 […]

    Blue Bayou Gumbo – Attempt #1

    We had the best time at Disneyland. Now that I’m home, I’m missing the food so bad. We were lucky enough to get reservations at The Blue Bayou one day and enjoyed the gumbo and 2 glasses of Pinot Noir. So, why not try to recreate it – missing the boats rolling by. Funny side […]
