Adobo Marinated Skirt Steak with Giardiniera

Adobo Marinated Skirt Steak with Giardiniera recipe pictures

First of all, does everyone know what giardiniera is? In case you do not have giardiniera in your area I will do my best to explain it. Giardiniera is a mix of pickled vegetables, usually peppers, celery, carrots, cauliflower, and olives.  It can be hot or mild. You can put giardiniera on just about anything. Personally, I don’t put it on anything. But Cliff puts giardiniera on just about everything! Pizza. Grilled cheese. Italian beef. Sausage. Steak. Italian subs. Spaghetti. You name it and he has probably added giardiniera to it. It is probably the most popular condiment in our house. In fact Cliff keeps a jar at home and at work. You just never know when you will need some giardiniera.

Ham and Havarti Panini with Jalapeno Butter

Ham and Havarti Panini with Jalapeno Butter recipe picturesHolidays in our family always revolve around food. We gather in the kitchen and usually don’t leave, even though my Mom tries to coax us away from the food and into another room to talk or play games. Can anybody relate? Each Easter when my family gets together my Mom makes a ham…and meatballs, sausage, pasta, veggies and a salad of course. It’s a feast! I like ham as much as the next person, but there is so much other food that there ends up being lots leftover.

Pasta with Peppers and Prosciutto Wrapped Chicken

Pasta with Peppers and Prosciutto Wrapped Chicken recipe picturesWhen we made Mexican Stuffed Peppers last week, Kara bought a bag of these cute mini bell peppers from Marianos. We stuffed a couple of the mini peppers same as our normal sized Mexican Stuffed Peppers, but decided to save the rest and make something fun with them later. We came up with a simple angel hair pasta where the bell peppers and prosciutto wrapped chicken are the stars of the show. We ended up serving this pasta for my Mom’s birthday dinner this past weekend and we all really liked it.
