Cherry Smash
This cherry smash recipe is a variation of a whiskey cocktail. It's a sipping drink and so good. Super swanky and very retro with a modern take. It's my new favorite cocktail.
Spinach, Feta, and Rice Casserole
This spinach, feta, and rice casserole is a perfectly creamy rice casserole, scented with lemon and dill. Sun-dried tomatoes add a pop of sweetness.
Enchilada Sauce with Chocolate
Onion and garlic are sautéed with cumin, cinnamon, and chili powder, then simmered with chicken broth. Blending in semisweet chocolate is the key to creating this authentic taste of Mexico. This is a great enchilada sauce without tomato sauce.
