Sisig (SEE-sig) is traditionally made with chopped pig's face and served on a sizzling hot platter. The mushrooms here mimic the chewy-meaty quality of pork and don't take nearly as long to prepare. You still get all the salty, tangy, and spicy flavors. And no face gets chopped!

Champagne Julep
It's a mint julep, where cognac and sparkling wine replace the bourbon. If you don't have crushed ice, put some in a towel and whack it with a mallet. Or add ice to a shaker and shake vigorously to crack it.

This loaf pan chicken gyros comes out moist and tender and picks up lots of flavor from the yogurt marinade.
Grandma's Collard Greens
These are, without a doubt, the best collard greens I have ever eaten (and I have had my share). My grandma used to make this recipe in the summer when her collards in the garden were ready. If you don't like these, you don't like collard greens, guaranteed! Add more red pepper flakes if you like it spicy.
