CUBAN SUMMER FIESTA!



Cuban Summer Fiesta! image

I developed a taste for Cuban food back when I was a flight attendant and traveling all the time. This recipe really takes me back to my layovers in Miami where I got to enjoy all the authentic flavors of the city's varied cultures. So delicious! Back then I couldn't wait to go through Miami so I could grab some good food... and now I can't wait to make this again right at home!

  • Cuban Sandwich on a Stick Appetizer. This Cuban sandwich is the perfect easy appetizer for anyone who prefers assembling food to cooking it. All you’ll have to do is gather your ingredients and stick them on skewers layer by layer.
  • Cuban Sandwich Dip. This is another excellent option for those who don’t love to cook. Most of your work goes into mixing all the ingredients. The oven does all the actual cooking for you.
  • Cuban Lentil Soup. If you’re looking for a dish that’s high in fiber, antioxidants, potassium, and iron, consider Cuban lentil soup. Start with a base of vegetable or low-sodium chicken broth.
  • Cuban Ham Roll-Ups. Part of the reason I’m such a fan of Cuban appetizers is because they’re so quick and easy to make. Many of them require little actual cooking, and cleaning up is usually easy, too.
  • Cuban Beef Pastries (Pastelitos de Carne) These puffed pastries are the perfect combination of sweet and savory. The pastry and homemade “simple syrup” add just the right amount of sweetness, while the picadillo in the center is warm, hearty, and beefy.
