Spicy Fish Soup
This is a delicious fish soup that's low in fat! Having grown up on the Texas/Mexico border, I like foods spicy, but you can adjust the seasonings to taste. I also add a splash of hot pepper sauce to each bowl.
Charlie's Sweet Island Brussels Sprouts
A sweet yet mildly spicy Caribbean rendition of an old vegetable staple makes what sometimes is a bitter-tasting veggie, liked by few, into an exciting side dish.
