This traditional Mexican carne asada marinade recipe will marinade 5 or 6 pounds of meat and can be easily halved or doubled. I've tried many carne asada recipes through the years, and this one outshines them all. The flavors are the most flavorful and authentic and the meat is pull-apart tender. I suggest marinating overnight for the best results. Muy delicioso!

Best Yet Turkey Chili
This chili is delicious. Add whatever amount of seasonings your family enjoys, and also add extra vegetables like zucchini and carrots if you want. Please make and enjoy — I know you will!
Gingerbread Latte Cookies
Inspired by a favorite holiday drink, these gingerbread latte cookies are chewy, spicy, and full of molasses and espresso goodness. Give yourself a bit of time to make these as the dough does require several hours of refrigeration before baking.
Italian Meringue Buttercream
Everyone thinks that I got the cake from a professional bakery when I use this buttercream. It is fluffy and not too sweet, perfect for wedding cakes or layered with pound cake and fruit preserves. Tightly-wrapped, it can be frozen for a month or two. Makes enough to frost an 8-inch layer cake.
