Boulevardier Cocktail
If you like a Negroni and you like whiskey, too, give this one a try. It's a whiskey Negroni. Play with the ratios; I sometimes pull back on the sweet vermouth just slightly. This is also great served on the rocks.
Caribbean Slaw
Colorful, zazzy coleslaw with a Caribbean slant. It's tasty and so pretty! I served this with slow cooker Jamaican jerk pork and it was fantastic.
Bob's Kabobs
Most people think of chunks of meat on a skewer when they think of kabobs, but this is another style known as kofta kabobs. Now that grilling season is upon us, this is definitely something you're going to want to work into the rotation. Serve with grilled pita bread and a blend of diced tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onions sprinkled with salt and olive oil, all topped with freshly chopped parsley and dried sumac.
