Copycat Pickle De Gallo
This copycat pickle de gallo is my version of the popular pickle-based pico de gallo, and it is the perfect topping for pulled pork tacos, fish tacos, to serve with barbecued ribs, or as a dip for tortilla chips. This may sound odd, but I like to dress up my cottage cheese with it. The possibilities are endless.
Banana Caramel Kefir Smoothie
This banana caramel kefir smoothie is made with nutrient rich, high protein, low-fat kefir, similar to a thin yogurt. It brings tanginess, and the sweet caramel syrup contrasts nicely in this banana smoothie. If you like your smoothies thicker, just add a little crushed ice.
Badische Schupfnudeln (Potato Noodles)
Typical of Baden-Baden and the Baden-Wurttemberg state in southwestern Germany, schupfnudeln is a kind of spaeztle (homemade pasta) that gets its name from the Upper German word 'Schupfen,' meaning 'to shove, push, throw or chuck.' They are traditionally handmade by rolling out potato dough on a board and cutting the dough into noodles. Simple and easy to make, they are delicious and go well with almost anything: roast pork, racks of lamb, bits of bacon, sauerkraut, and any cabbage dishes.
