I have to honestly say that only started eating eggplant just over a year ago. My girlfriend at the time introduced to it, and ever since I’ve been really be craving eggplant and looked forward to trying it new ways. I love this version on stuffed eggplant as much as I did spicy grilled eggplant with green pepper and parley- the dish that started my eggplant craze. Try this recipe; it’s quick and simple vegetarian meal for those always on the go.

This sweet potato pudding recipe is an old time recipe my great aunt use to make every the summer time. I remember this like it was yesterday – I use to run to my aunt house as soon as school was closed for the summer knowing that she a batch of sweet potato pudding just for me. Luckily, she was able to past on the recipe before passing away to my mom. Every so often my mom cooks up a batch of this delicious sweet potato pudding. Thanks aunt val – Rip!

I use to work at Hotel called the Fort Young Hotel, and this was one of my most favorite cocktail recipes. At the hotel they were called Exotic Fruit Punch. Now I’m not working at the hotel, when some of my friends drop by to visit and I put this together in the blender. They’re dying to know my recipe – well I guess today is their lucky day. Fruit punch (Mele) is refreshing cocktail anytime of the year and great for people on fruit diets.
