Cool off on a summer day with a pina colada-inspired blend of Irish cream liqueur with rum, pineapple juice, and cream of coconut.  

Just two ingredients! This is foolproof and good every time!! If you've ever enjoyed a famous chicken restaurant's biscuits, you've got to try these! 

Chipotle Fish Tacos are made with a mango-cilantro salsa, and chipotle aioli sauce is served with garlic spiked black beans and Spanish rice. I have run this special in the last restaurant I worked at as a daily special. It always sold out! I hope that you will try this recipe, it is a hit if you enjoy fish tacos! 

Stuffed with four kinds of cheese, crawfish, bacon, and sausage, then dipped in beer batter and fried golden brown, these jalapenos will be a favorite at your next gathering! 

I first ate this dish at a Brazilian restaurant and tried to recreate it at home. It turned out very cheesy and has a wonderful flavor. 

I had some left over cabbage and ham hock and threw this together. I was very surprised because it sounded yucky. 

This version of lasagna packs lots of flavor from Parmesan and Asiago! 

This basic and flexible soup is mostly chicken stock, a ham hock, cabbage, and potatoes. 

I came up with this recipe for my Husband's boss who can not get enough heat or garlic in his food. He still requests this dish often, according to this wife. Warning: I would not recommend this recipe for a first date or a romantic evening. You will love it if you love garlic and very spicy food. It's also very good on French bread for a spicy garlic bread alternative. 

This fruity cocktail is a classic! 

Scandinavians warm chilly nights around Christmastime and after skiing with steaming glasses or cups of glogg, a spiced, red wine-based hot punch seasoned with cinnamon sticks and whole cloves. 

Prepared sweet roll dough and colorful frostings speed up the cake baking process for a Mardi Gras King Cake. A small plastic baby inserted into the side of the cake will bring good luck in the coming year to whoever discovers it in their slice. Beads, additional plastic babies, curly ribbon, and other festive trinkets can be used to decorate the cake. 

My best friend who just happens to be Irish made this drink for me one cold night in Chicago and since then, I have been hooked! Warning: it is very potent, just one of these will warm you up and basically make you good for nothing afterwards - what a treat! It is super to drink at night if you have a sore throat. My friend said this is what the Irish drink if they don't feel good but don't wait until you have a cold to try this recipe! 

This is a quick and easy throw-together salad that is super tangy and creamy and a way to use up some of your fresh garden veggies. Very refreshing! Increase or decrease amount of vinegar and mayonnaise to your liking. 

A little love of chocolate, bananas, and leftover coffee make this a very nice treat. 

We make these for a quick snack while watching movies or for an easy kid pleaser. They are not the most fancy nachos, but they taste great. 

This is a recipe that I have been working on for a while. They are great for my husband's football parties! Serve with sour cream or ranch dressing on the side. Enjoy! 

This is a really mouth-watering way of making tongue. It practically melts in your mouth. Enjoy! 

This is a delicious combo of about five recipes I found while researching for my first Thanksgiving ham. The empty baking pan afterwards was my best compliment! 

Gumbo with a twist! Duck is added to the traditional spicy medley of shrimp, smoked sausage, bell peppers, onions, garlic, celery, and tomatoes to create a rich, hearty dish. Serve hot over white rice, and substitute other poultry for the duck if you wish.
