My mom would always make this delicious, creamy rice pudding when we were kids. If a thicker rice is desired, increase rice to 1 1/4 cups and add another egg. Sprinkle with cinnamon.

Shrimp with Lobster Sauce

This shrimp with lobster sauce is just like what you'd find at a Chinese restaurant that serves Cantonese cuisine. Despite the name, there's no lobster in the sauce. Serve over white rice.

Perogies

These perogies can be boiled or fried in butter, which makes them tastier. Serve with sour cream or cottage cheese. I grew up on these delicious perogies. I like to triple the recipe and freeze some for later by freezing perogies in a single layer on a tray, then storing them in freezer bags.
