My mother-in-law loves Tex-Mex but has an onion allergy. After several attempts, I invented an authentic-tasting salsa without onions that derives some of its smoky flavor from roasted poblano pepper. I've taken to roasting the peppers in bulk so I can always have some on hand.
Ingredients
- 1 poblano pepper
- 3 cloves garlic , peeled
- 5 ripes tomatoes
- 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
Instructions

1
Preheat the oven's broiler.

Place poblano pepper and garlic cloves on a medium baking sheet. Turning pepper frequently, broil at maximum distance from heat until browned, about 15 minutes.

3
In a food processor, place roasted pepper, roasted garlic, tomatoes, cilantro, cumin, chili powder, and lime juice. Process using pulse setting until an evenly chunky texture is obtained. Chill until serving.

These golden, crispy air fryer smashed potatoes are easier to make than you think in just 20 minutes! They're flavored with garlic and brushed with butter to make them extra crispy.
Sausage Egg Muffins
These sausage and egg muffins are a quick and easy morning or afternoon snack. I use standard muffin pans and fill them 1⁄3 full, but you can adjust the amount of filling to suit your taste.
Lemon Syllabub
A syllabub is a deliciously light, creamy, sophisticated little dessert from days gone by. I first tasted it at a supper given by a lecturer in seventeenth-century literature when I was in college, and it took my taste buds right back to the Restoration. It can be prepared as either a parfait or a punch, but as it contains alcohol, you may not want to serve this to younger family members. Eat it with a small spoon — and savor it!
