We live in Saudi Arabia in a close-knit community full of different cultures, and our neighbors from Pakistan have become like our extended family away from home. Kokub, one of our neighbors, makes the most amazing mango chutney. A few years ago she invited me to help her. Of course, she doesn't use a recipe, so the next time I went over with my measuring cups and scale so I could recreate her magic on my own. What an incredible experience!

Jalapeno Sausage Crescent Rolls
Jalapeno sausage crescent rolls blend the best of two worlds. Jalapeno poppers and pigs in a blanket. They aren't the traditional small size appetizers, so they're perfect for a satisfying snack. These get double jalapeno flavor with jalapeno-smoked sausage. If you want an even fancier presentation, use puff pastry.
Pork, Broccoli and Rice Casserole
I made this pork, broccoli, and rice casserole dish one night when I had frozen leftover pork roast that I had cooked in my slow cooker. Pork, broccoli, and rice with a hint of curry. It's very homey and easy to make ahead of time.
