We belong to a CSA for the summer. For those of you not familiar with what a CSA is, basically its a program where you pay into, and they give you weekly rations of fruits, vegetables, bread and even eggs that are locally and organically grown. I opted to buy it this summer for two [...]

A Ropa Vieja that makes itself (or how I learned to love the crockpot)

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 [...]

As we plan to get pregnant soon, and I have some pounds to lose (keep your eye out for The Biggest Loser Lambie edition), I’m also taking a second look at the way we eat. I get bombarded (a good thing) on a daily basis by ex-schoolmate Laura Posada who pretty much leads a one [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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, [...]

It’s been a while since I posted a recipe….I didn’t want this to be 100% cooking oriented blog. I’m trying to achieve a balance between life and cooking that I hope keeps you the reader entertained! So for your entertainment, I bring you a CHILEAN recipe…because you know, now that I am married to one [...]

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 [...]
