Easy Chicken Mole

Posted by larry #2  

Moles are one of my favorites! This version is an easier version, as it uses Ancho Chile Powder instead of whole chilies. I created this dish, borrowing from Moles on the Web+Zarr too, with me adding a lot. IT'S MILD TASTING, BUT YOU CAN ADD MORE... MORE»

Columbian Pineapple Custard

(1 reviews) Posted by pattikay in L.A.  

A simple and delicious dessert from South American Food and Cooking. When I made this it did set, but was not really firm, so it would be best to invert these into a small bowl. This also is not a creamy type of custard - has some of the... MORE»

These beans are a staple in my family's nutrition. I make them at least once a week, and as with beans they taste better the next day so I make plenty for left overs. You will need a pressure cooker for this one. MORE»

RECIPE: Colombian Pound Cake

This is a rich and delicious pound cake recipe. It is not too sweet and the brandy gives it such a great flavor. It tastes great with a cup of coffee. A small piece goes a long way! Thanks for sharing.
