This is my mother's Puerto Rican gazpacho salad recipe. I've been eating it since I was knee-high to a grasshopper. It's good and very easy to make.

German New Year Pretzel

German New Year Pretzel

This is a traditional New Year treat in Germany. It brings luck when it's the first thing you eat in the New Year. Germans typically eat it with butter spread on it. Rather than a salty pretzel, this is a lightly sweet dough. I converted and translated this from metric measurement and German language, and it turned out just wonderfully!

This wild rice dressing recipe was given to me by a friend, and it has been a family tradition ever since. No need to stuff the turkey. This dressing can be made the day before Thanksgiving and heated in the microwave 10 minutes before serving!

This chicken adobo is incredibly easy to make. Chicken simmers in a soy and vinegar sauce with some savory aromatics, and emerges tender and moist.
