Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Picadillo

    • Ishie1013 on February 18, 2024

      Very nice kind of conglomerate of sloppy joes and hash served on hamburger buns. It did require about 30 minutes to cook the potatoes through rather than 20-25 but came out nicely.

  • Chicken spaghetti

    • jenmacgregor18 on August 21, 2015

      This was pretty good. It was different; not just spaghetti with chicken in it. I used bottled chili sauce. I'm sure this would be much better with the home made sauce. Because mine was a bit salty, I added some cream to compensate. Be sure to use unsalted butter, as bottled chili sauce has a ton of sodium. I omitted green olives & added 1/2 c of sofrito (white onion, garlic, Anaheim peppers, red & green bell peppers & cilantro).

  • Jalapeño cornbread

    • Ishie1013 on September 14, 2024

      Delicious and simple skillet cornbread recipe that is absolutely delicious. It seems like a lot of wet ingredients to cornmeal and flour but it makes a nice moist cornbread. It’s still corn season, so I scraped the kernels off a fresh ear. If jalapeños are a bit too spicy, they make low heat pickled ones so you still get the nice pickled pepper flavor without the heat.

  • Marinated rice, black-eyed peas, and corn salad

    • LittleTex on October 07, 2020

      Tasty - I actually liked it better when freshly made and still warm.

  • Shiner's soused carrots

    • Ishie1013 on February 18, 2024

      Very nice. Used Modelo for the beer and gives the carrots a nice general flavor.

  • Good-'n'-gooey peach cobbler

    • Aggie92 on September 23, 2013

      I made a peach crisp over the weekend and only used the filling part of this recipe. My peaches were slightly overripe and very sweet so I cut the sugar back to 2 tablespoons. The spices and vanilla extract are used in small quantities and give the peaches an out of this world flavor. None of them stand out and no one was able to guess what I used, but they elevated a plain peach filling to new heights. Delicious!

  • The Driskill's 1886 Room chocolate sheet cake

    • foolcontrol on February 03, 2018

      This recipe is the real Texas Sheet Cake. Really good.
