One of the things my husband and my friends BEG me to cook is Ropa Vieja. Seriously, it goes something like this: “Where are you from?” “I was born in PR my parents are Cuban” “Seriously? So you can make Ropa Vieja“ *sigh* of all the GREAT Cuban dishes, Ropa Vieja is at the top [...]

Shame on me for not writing in sooooo long. I don’t blame you if you don’t come around anymore or have taken me off your blogroll. However, try teaching a class, finishing a dissertation and packing a move so you can understand how time limited we are. Still no excuse, I should make time because [...]

Yes, friends, Vaca Frita. I held off on posting this during Lent because I couldn’t guarantee it wouldn’t fall on a Friday, and since Catholics are not supposed to eat meat on Fridays, I didn’t want to torture any of my readers. Seriously, Vaca Frita on a Lenten Friday, that could be cruel and unusual [...]
¡Tostadas!
Posted in Cuban, Puerto Rican, Recipes, tagged Cuban Food, Recipes on April 9, 2009 | 10 Comments »
There is nothing I miss most living in Rhode Island than being able to have tostadas y café con leche for breakfast. Now, I have café con leche every morning; that is not problem. But tostadas? I can’t even get anything similar to Cuban bread for those. But, Dios ayuda a los pobres, and I [...]
I get Cravings…

No I’m not pregnant, YET. But every once in a while, the Cuban blood in my veins thumps around for something in particular. Something that I’ve not had in a while. Today it was Pan con Bistec. In Miami I would go to the Sergio’s in Bird Road, the one across the Bird Bowl. Man, [...]
Creating My First Crockpot Recipe!
Posted in Adriana, Cuban, Recipes, tagged Crockpot Recipes, Cuban Food, Lent on March 7, 2009 | 11 Comments »
A while back I had asked Marta if she had ever used the crockpot for ablandar frijoles. You see, while I can make MEAN frijoles negros, I am ashamed to say they come out of the can – the Goya con agua y sal can that is. But everytime I’ve tried to make it out [...]
A Cuban remedio for the Artic Blast
Posted in Cuban, Recipes on January 18, 2009 | 3 Comments »
It’s been a cold week up here in Rhode Island. We had snow during the week and again today Sunday, so the view outside is beautiful. This week we also had a so called Artic Blast that had us with single digit temperatures for a couple of nights, and in the low teens about three [...]
Adriana’s easy Frijoles Colorados
Posted in Cuban, Recipes, tagged Cuban Food on January 10, 2009 | 5 Comments »
I love frijoles negros don’t get me wrong, but they are a staple in all Cuban restaurants. Every day you go in the have frijoles negros or moros con cristianos. So my heart skips a beat whenever I walk into a Cuban restaurant and find one of two things on the daily specials: Congrí Oriental [...]
Adriana’s Moros con Cristianos or Arroz Congrí

Yet another cooking day in the Lambie-Bóveda household! I promise once the Crismases are over, the cooking blogging will diminish and there will be more posts on us. Besides, I’m starting to wonder if the neighbors think I’ve lost it since I know take pictures of everything I cook! As I told you earlier, one [...]
Cuban-Rican Christmas Part I
Posted in Christmas, Cuban, Recipes, tagged Flan de Queso on December 25, 2008 | 1 Comment »
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! Ahhh, Nochebuena is upon us. Although for us (Marisol and I) the work really starts the day before. Whether she is coming over, or we are going over there (this year they are coming over) there are things that always must be done in advance. No not the cleaning. The Flan de Queso, [...]
