In this Filipino fish recipe, bangus (milkfish) is stewed in a flavorful, slightly sour tamarind broth with lots of vegetables, an all-time favorite.

Overnight Pineapple-Banana Oatmeal

Mornings can be hectic and skipping breakfast is not a wise option. Overnight oatmeal flavored with pineapple, banana, and pecans is an awesome way to start the day. It's a healthy, quick-and-easy, nutrient packed, make-ahead breakfast ready when you are.

Italian Capezzoli di Venere (Chocolate Truffles of Venus)

For years I have been making this sublime chocolate treat, which I believe to be perfect for Valentine's Day. Created by combining a dark chocolate ganache with chestnuts, coating it with a creamy white chocolate coating, and finally topping the truffle with a nipple of pale pink sweet white chocolate. Naughty and delicious!

Slow Cooker Beer Pulled Pork

My recipe for pulled pork is simple: 1 can of beer, a 5- to 6-pound pork butt, seasonings, and a bottle of barbecue sauce. My beer choice is Shiner Bock, and my barbecue sauce choice is Sweet Baby Ray's. Just put it in a slow cooker before you go to bed, and when you wake up the magic has happened. See for yourself! Serve on onion buns or hamburger buns.

Chicken Etouffee

This chicken version isn't a true étouffée like the shrimp or crawfish you'll see at a restaurant, which is probably why my family and I like it so much.
