My wife tried a new Paella recipe yesterday and it was really good. The peas did a surprisingly amount of brightness.

This was very good. We didn't go full Philly cheesesteak but just a basic but really good beef dip. Jenn used the recipe below which is a keeper.
My wife successfully tried another recipe this past week. It was good enough to make it to the blog. The flavor that is developed in the sauce had a nice depth. We did not use chicken thighs as they were too expensive shockingly so we used some chicken breast we already had in the freezer.
I have been wanting to make a minestrone soup all winter long. I finally was organized enough come grocery shopping day to get all the ingredients. I did not use the vegetables that I did not like from the following recipe but it turned out pretty good. I used a few too many crushed tomatoes, otherwise I would use this recipe again: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/230298/slow-cooker-vegetarian-minestrone/
My wife has been experimenting with some new recipes to try during the cold Calgary months. This one is a winner! The cremini mushrooms hold up their firm texture in the crockpot and the Greek yogurt gives it an unexpected acidic/sour note that I enjoy. Give this one a try: https://www.wellplated.com/slow-cooker-beef-stroganoff/
My moms friend made her a cake for her birthday and while I was shocked it actually tasted pretty good and was really moist. It was good enough that I asked for the recipe
Ingredients
I used the following recipe with alterations to the dressing and no cheese or onions. It turned out OK. Next time I would add a herb of some kind and more salt. I only used miracle whip and the juice from a full lemon as my dressing. The amount of miracle whip was to taste as well as to a thickness I was looking for. I also used a ham steak then rendered the fat and let it cool. I wanted bigger ham chunks than deli meat. Looking back on it, this recipe was more of inspiration/guideline than actually following the directions

This was the recipe she used and I wanted to capture it on my site: https://lilluna.com/easy-homemade-meatballs/
She did not however share her sweet and sour recipe. If I get that I will edit this post.
My grandma recently passed away, which left a huge void in so many ways. One of the Christmas traditions we have is to drink Colo de Mono on Christmas eve. Since my grandma was not going to be able to make this drink for me and my family I took upon myself to make sure that we carry on her traditions. My version is a bit different and will never be as good as my grandmas. However I used the recipe found here (Colo de Mono). It turned out pretty good for my first attempt.
There are a couple of suggestions that I have now that I have made the recipe. Making the cinnamon and clove extract too me closer to 20 minutes to reduce instead of the 30 minutes the recipe suggests. I may have just had a harder rolling simmer. The recipe also calls for one cup of liquor (I used Pisco), which makes a milder finished product which may not be a bad thing. It is easier to add more/adjust for personal preferences. Next time I would add a cup and a half.
I love and miss you very much Tati and I hope I made you proud 💓
