Crepes

Get creative with these, use a teaspoon of an extract to switch up the flavor, top with different fruits, add a filling. This is just a base recipe, what you do with it is entirely up to you. I used baker’s measures so you’ll need a scale to measure this out. Prep time below includes 2 hour resting period.

Portuguese Pork Roast

This recipe is all about the marinade. Instructions are given for oven, crockpot, and instant pot. The marinade can be thickened to use as gravy as well. This comes out so moist though that gravy isn’t needed, it’s just there for more flavor. Here this roast is pictured with Potato Love Letters

Portuguese Sopas

This can be found at Holy Ghost Fiestas. It’s a common Portuguese favorite. It’s ugly food but damn good. Below you’ll find instructions for stove top, crock pot and instant pot. I tend to serve this with macaroni or potato salad. It comes with a beautiful tale, if you’d like to know, ask.

Chicken (Veal) Piccata

I won’t touch veal because I know where it comes from. Any time a recipe calls for veal, I use chicken. Chicken is also a much less expensive cut of meat.

Fresh Apple Cake

This cake became a favorite of mine to make when I lived in upstate NY 2005-2009. The fall apple harvest gave me so many apple options that I’d mix and match different types of apples which always made this cake different. I’ve had a lot of fun making it over the years.

Nana’s Pepper Steak

This was a childhood favorite and is till this very day. I make it throughout the year but it’s an absolute MUST HAVE on my birthday every year. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
