Chilean Porotos (beans)
Mom recently had a visitor from our home country of Chile and she brought us many goodies, including some Chilean beans. With mom’s guidance, I cooked her recipe and documented it for the whole family. It’s a privilege to carry on family traditions and I’m lucky to still have time to learn the family recipes from the source, mom. Any white bean would work in this dish but I’m so glad I had the real product I grew up eating. I used a heavy duty Dutch oven and cooked this long and slow.

Pizza semi-home-made
I bought the pizza dough at the store and added the ingredients: prosciutto, fresh tomato, fresh mozzarella and chopped basil. Season with salt, pepper, and oregano. Quick, easy and delicious dinner. Add dressed arugula on top for a complete meal!
