This lively Mexican bean salad is a fresh and enthusiastic side dish perfect for potlucks, barbecue or for a quick meal preparation. It’s as flavorful as it’s versatile, as it’s a colorful mix of beans, corn and peppers thrown in a tangy dressing. This gorgeous, Mexican-style bean and vegetable mixture is a fun twist on my classic three-bean salad recipe. It is made with three types of canned food, sweet corn, colorful peppers and jalapeño. The vinegar-based dressing is tied together with a slightly sweet, citrus tongue and a hint of warm cumin. Call it salad, dip, seasoning, grab a…

I like memories of my childhood road trip to the south. When I was a child, we visited our family “down” the annual “south” from St. Louis, Missouri.

We also thought about parents who had to travel south between Jim Crow and parents who were paradise for eating when these gas stations were denied the restaurant entrance. “Great American…

Create cookies: Heat the oven to about 350°F (175°C) and arrange two 8-inch round cake pans and round parchment paper. Apply butter or non-stick spray to the exposed sides. A little extra under the parchment will help it stick. If you only have one cake pan, don’t worry. The batter grabs while you bake the first round. In a large bowl, melt half of the butter in the microwave, melt in a medium-sized pot in the stove, and stir until the butter melts. (This will lower the temperature.) Add salt, brown sugar and milk and whisk until smooth. If it’s…
