This is a classic french dessert. When I was a teen my parents took us to France to visit, my oldest brother, who had gone over to visit his high school exchange student girlfriend after finishing college. He ended up staying and attending medical school there so we went to visit. His girlfriend had a muti course dinner for us and this was the amazing dessert. It was so beautiful and different, light crisp with chewy center middle meringues floating in a creamy vanilla custard sauce with drizzles of caramel and chocolate. You will have to plan ahead for the long cooking time and chilling of the custard, but it can be madecin advance and assembled right before serving

something different can either be grilled or done in the oven. Unfortunately due to rain these were done in the oven. the sauce taste similar to hoisin sauce.

My sister used to make this quick and easy dish in college because of the inexpensive ingredients. When she first made it for me, I was slightly repulsed by the unusual ingredient combination... but I gave it a try and was pleasantly surprised by how delicious this recipe is. It has become one of my favorite comfort dishes. Enjoy!

Okay, if you haven't already noticed; I 💖 soup! My cousin Jim's wife is unmistakably, without a doubt full blown Italian (yes awesome accent and all) a few years back the family would get together and watch "Scarface" "The Godfather" and marathons of the "Sopranos" and each time, Maria would make this soup. And every time (being the corny family we are) we would all say "Say hello to my bowl of soup" each time she dished it. We're losers I know. But get a bunch of Brazilian, Portuguese and Italians together... well... Ya know. . lol. ENJOY!!!!

I wanted to make a quick and easy Doraemon, so I made him look like he was peeking in through a door.If you're making a bento, you just have to line the bottom with the rice for the door, so it's even more simple! If the rice is too hot, the nori will become soft, so let it cool a bit first. Recipe by Hitomikan1027

When I was posted overseas, there was no Mexican restaurant. But I had a craving for Mexican food, so I made it myself.Since then, this dish has become our standard menu in our family.*You can make the chili con carne soupy, or rather thick, or however you want. The consistency changes depending on how long you cook it for. You can make it more colorful if you add carrots or bell peppers.*Make tortillas to your desired sizes. We like making them small, and enjoy with lots of different toppings! For 4-6 servings. Recipe by Komahina mama
