Ingredients:
Boiled potatoes (red are best)
1 can Mixed Vegetables
Heinz Salad Crème
Salt and pepper
Milk (canned or fresh)
Several boiled and sliced eggs
Cooking Instructions:
Slice and cube potatoes as preferred. Stir in Mixed Veggies & Salad Creme. If you can't get Heinz Salad Creme, use Kraft Miracle Whip or Lime Mayonesa. Moisten with milk until creamy and garnish with sliced boiled eggs.
Ingredients:
Conch
Lime juice
Veggies - plantain, carrot, potato, corn, squash, onion, garlic, lime, habanero, cilantro and/or oregano.
Pepper
Garlic
Coconut oil or butter
Water
Chicken soup base or bouillon cubes
Cooking Instructions:
Pound the conch into bite size pieces and squeeze fresh lime over it and mix it. Let it sit while cutting the veggies. Cut veggies into bite size pieces. Use corn with husk and cut into 1-inch pieces. Slice squash diagonally into orange-style pieces. Meanwhile, get the soup base ready. Use a big soup pot over medium low flame to start. Saute garlic in butter or coconut oil. Slowly add water flavored by bouillon (Maggie, Lipton, Knorr or chicken soup or use chicken bouillon cubes). Sprinkle with pepper to taste. Increase the stove temperature from low to high so that the mixture starts to boil. Add conch and add vegetables according to hardness--potatoes, carrots and corn first. Next, plantain, onion, and squash. After a few minutes of boiling, turn heat down to simmer and then cover. Once vegetables are tender, the soup is ready. Cut up fresh cilantro and oregano along with cut up habanero peppers and lime wedges. Use this to add as an optional accompaniment to your soup. Make a fresh pot of rice to accompany your soup or serve it with tortilla or by itself.
Ingredients:
2 Cups Flour
1/4 Cup Shortening
1 tsp Baking Powder (prove)
About 3/8 Cup Water
1/4 tsp Salt
Cooking Instructions:
Mix dry ingredients well. Cut in shortening with a fork until it disappears. Add water and knead until you have dough. (Add water, one tsp at a time, if it's too dry). Cover and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Cut into six equal pieces and knead each piece until you can make a nice round ball. Coat the inside of a flat bottomed bowl with shortening. Flatten each ball into a round tortilla on the bottom of the bowl. Fry tortillas on a hot comal until they are slightly brown on both sides. The comal should be very hot, and if you cook too long, the tortillas will be tough.
