Sinigang is a Filipino soup cooked with pork. Serve with rice and for additional sauce, use soy or fish sauce. If you want to, you can add what Filipinos call gabi gabi, which is a small taro root. When peeled they look like potatoes. You can add five to six of them when you add the water and make sure they are cooked through. Take them out when they are cooked because they can get too soft.

Spicy Beef and Bean Enchilada Pie
This is a scrumptious, filling Mexican dish that is easy and loved by everyone I've served it to. Lots of flavor and a spicy kick of chiles and pepperjack cheese will make this a family staple any night of the week.
Cherry-Zucchini Bread
I defy anyone to guess this has zucchini in it and the maraschino cherries are only evident by the red dots. This is a really tasty way to use up those abundant garden zucchini!
Coconut Curry Chili
The coconut, curry, and mango chutney really turn the flavor up in this curry chili recipe. I put this together one night with what I had, and loved the results. It tastes better the next day, just like most chili, and even freezes well. Seriously, you have to try it. Serve by itself, with rice, or with naan bread.
