This is my Grandma's recipe for sweet and sour cabbage and bell pepper slaw that couldn't be simpler to make! My family loves it as a side dish for grilled burgers and hot dogs, but it works equally well in winter with roast pork or beef.

Manjar (Dulce de Leche) from Scratch
This is one hundred percent Chilean. It is a sort of caramel that can be found everywhere in Chile. Actually, most pastry making in my country has manjar in it. The truth is that one can eat manjar anytime during the day and in many different ways: with bread, cheese, cookies, and my favorite, with meringue. Some of my foreign friends love it, some others hate it, so I guess you must give it a try and judge.
Original Old Bay Coleslaw
This coleslaw recipe used to be printed on the Old Bay cans, but it was removed a decade or more ago. It's very different from the one on the current Old Bay website. I much prefer this one and even today occasionally see a posting from someone looking for the old recipe from the Old Bay can. Well, here it is! It's a great side dish — especially with barbecued pork.
Tuna Panini Melt
This tuna panini melt is a new twist on an old standby.
