Quick Quiche
Great inspiration recipe. I doubled the ingredients as I added zucchini and mushrooms. I precooked the onions with the vegetables sauteeing them together, seasoned them with ground garlic, cumin and ground oregano. I used mild cheddar cheese and combined 3/4 of it with the mix, sprinkled the top with the rest of the cheese, the crumbled bacon and Italian seasoned breadcrumbs for a crispy crust on top. Delicious!

Sweet Restaurant Slaw
This was amazing. I made my own version of "KFC-at-home dinner", with the fried chicken, french fries and coleslaw and used this recipe. I did not buy the packaged coleslaw but made my own combination of cabbage, carrot and lettuce. I used mayo instead of miracle whip. I followed some of the reviews that adviced to cut a tad on the sugar. It turned out delicious! Follow the recommendation of leaving it in the fridge at least 2 hours before serving. Thank you for the wonderful recipe! 5 stars!

Meatloaf that Doesn't Crumble
Soooooo... I was looking for a meatloaf recipe that would be as "generic" as possible. My husband was craving it and I had never made it. I am Peruvian and my husband is Bahamian and in Peru we do not make meatloaf as part of our day to day menu. Anyway... I picked this recipe as the ingredients sounded like a generic meatloaf, but I made a few changes: I did not have the onion soup so did not put it in, I replaced it by 1/4 cup of men-si (tau-si) sauce (you can find it in Asian foodstores). I added 2 eggs and cut the milk in half. We do not have mild pork sausages here in Peru so I replaced it by Argentinian chorizos. I did not cover it with ketchup before baking it. I left the rest just as it said on the recipe and it turned out delicious. My husband said it was the best meatloaf he has ever tried!
