E's roommate Manny's madre's Honduras style tacos, to be specific. Easy and delicious! Not so much of a recipe as a recommendation for seasoning the beef. Fry as many small corn tortillas as you'd like to serve in canola oil about 20-30 seconds on each side. Rest on paper towels. Sauté 1 lb ground beef in frying pan. When almost completely browned, add the following spices, listed in order from most to least, to taste. Chile lime seasoning (he used Olde Thompson brand of chile powder and lime juice) paprika garlic salt salt cumin oregano When seasoned to your taste. Serve with your favorite taco ingredients like: cilantro, tomato, lettuce, crema/sour cream, cheese, salsa, etc.

Don't know why I have never shared this before... SO much better than pre-packaged cocoa mix...and so easy for a group.  For about 8 servings, depending on how rich you like your cocoa- Sift together 2 c powdered sugar* 1 1/2 c dry milk powder 1 c baking cocoa Make your cocoa with a 1:1 ratio of mix to hot water for a group serving of cocoa. For a personal cup use about 1/2 c mix + 1/2 c hot water for a single serving. Stir well. Then add milk or cream or almond milk or coconut creamer or... whatever you like in your cocoa. (you can also increase the dry milk powder (by about 1/2c) if you like it creamy and won't have access to any additions - like when we take it in a thermos while snowshoeing or skiing, etc.)  I found it delicious but a bit too rich with a straight 1:1 ratio, especially if I didn't add milk or something else. So if you don't have anything extra to mix with it... go a bit easy on the mix.  (I tried it with cactus honey powder, an altern...

Caught the tail end of a cooking show and saw they put together butternut squash with a crumb topping. So I got to thinking... and this is what we ended up with... I didn't really measure so these are just estimated amounts, watch and see what looks balanced. And as far as taste goes, feel free to add more herbs and spices if it seems too mellow when you are eating it. Bake a halved butternut squash (sliced lengthwise and remove seeds) in the microwave for about ten minutes each. Peel the squash and cut into inch cubes. Sauté a thinly sliced onion in a 2-3 TBs butter . As soon as the onion starts to glisten, add the butternut cubes and a bit more butter so everything is coated. Add cooked shredded/cubed chicken, a cup or two. Stir altogether. Salt and pepper well. I added about a cup of cooked/pureed pumpkin and 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice. Combine well. When it is all glistening and warmed through, remove from heat and pour into 9x13 baking dish. Make a topping by combini...

This is one of the foods Eb actually asks for - so here's a quick version for him to make while in the dorms. This recipe is not trying to be authentic in any way, just quick and easy. In a skillet over medium heat, 1-2 Tb of sesame oil (coconut or vegetable oil works too, it will just alter the taste slightly) brown on all sides by stirring and turning every couple of minutes: 2 chicken breasts, cubed and dusted with flour (an easy way to do this is to put the chicken cubes & a couple tablespoons of flour in a ziploc bag, close it and shake until each piece of chicken is coated, then add the cubes to the pan) Meanwhile, combine for the sauce: 1/4 c Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce 1/8-1/4 c orange juice concentrate 2 T soy sauce When the chicken is cooked through, (browned on all sides - you can check its all cooked by cutting open the largest piece to check) add the sauce to the pan & combine well and let the sauce thicken and warm for a few minutes before tur...
