Turkey Chili Slow Cooker Recipe

The day my slow cooker died on me, I nearly cried. After years of wondering how a slow cooker would work for me and being hesitant to use one fearing I’d burn down the house, I finally got one as a Christmas gift three years ago. I couldn’t believe I had waited so long! It […]

August 26, 2012 By Melanie Edwards 68 Comments

Pastelón Recipe - Plantain Lasagna Recipe

Plantains are a staple ingredient in Puerto Rican food as well as other Caribbean and tropical cuisines. Most people know of sweet plantains, but you can eat and cook with either ripe plantains (sweet) or green plantains. Both are delicious. I’ve wanted to share a pastelón recipe, a dish akin to lasagna that I love, for […]
