Monterey Jack Scalloped Hasselback Potatoes


Don’t know what to prepare for dinner? If you want to treat your family and guests to a delightful dish, try these scalloped hasselback potatoes. The classic recipe was invented by a chef in 1940 for the Hasselbacken restaurant in Stockholm, Sweden and to this day they continue to serve this dish there. Preparing simple potatoes the Swedish way turns them into an elegant and unforgettable dish. If you have not already gone hasselback, then go now.

On this occasion I have combined Monterey jack and sour cream as topping for these delicacies, and

Nectarine Fruit Crumble


This nectarine crumble is so delectable!! What I love about this dessert is the combination of pecans, oats and the fruit cooked in its juice. This is a dessert to enjoy and to prepare often because it is too easy to prepare. You can use this same recipe to prepare an apple crumble, pear or plum crumble.

I thank all my blog readers who write to thank, congratulate and greet me. You really surprise me and encourage me to continue publishing even though at times I feel I won't be able to continue blogging. God is my strength a guide in all I do, but you, readers are my motivation to continue with this blog.

This is a tropical, exotic Dominican juice, ideal for those hot summer afternoons when you crave something refreshing. It's extraordinary and so easy to prepare. It tastes like orange creamsicle, so delicious it will probably make you feel like you can "die dreaming". The traditional sweet orange morir soñando recipe calls for orange juice (store-bought or freshly squeezed), sugar, whole milk and vanilla, very similar to the orange julius of 1929, but in this post I share the bitter orange recipe which is my favorite. It tastes the same but it's just a bit stronger.

WARNING: All this juice has as dangerous is the name, you can confidently drink it. Dream on, you will definitely not die! Enjoy!
