Old & New Recipes, Still Delicious

Spent the night in Indiana just to wake up and sit on my parents porch and have my dog and cats around me with a nice view of rolling hills.  Since I spent the whole day on Sunday in Indiana we had to do lunch and dinner.  We kept lunch simple by sticking to our Cubano's, alongside a fresh Tomato Salad with hearts of palm, herbs, fresh lemon juice and some creamy goat cheese.  Then we used a Martha Stewart Mushroom Ragu recipe, and a Pinterest recipe I found for Cinnamon Sugar Pull Apart Bread.  The Mushroom Ragu was delicious with lots of different flavors, and we used our favorite choices of mushrooms to make it our own.  The Cinnamon Sugar Pull Apart Bread was just as good, and we added a nice sugar glaze to the top when it came out of the oven.  Another Successful Sunday in the books, and many more to come..

Bright and Tasty!

A couple weeks ago we started making Cuban Bread, which was amazing in itself, to go with our Cubano's.  We have finally decided on our favorite recipe, and we put it along side a bright salad with a fresh avocado pesto and lots of colorful veggies!  For our Cubano's we have been buying bread from Kroger that is a ciabatta sandwhich style, lightly smother with French's Mustard and Mayonnaise, then we add our cooked/warmed turkey and ham meats to the sandwich, along with sandwich stuffer Dill Pickles and a slice of Swiss Cheese.  From there we put the Cubano on a grill press and let the cheese melt and the bread get toasty and golden.  We added a nice summer salad with any colorful veggies you like and then added a avocado pesto to the top.. Delicious!
