A year in my kitchen
Every morning I wake up, put on a pot of tea or a kettle of coffee, take the dog out, bring the dog in, cook breakfast for mi novio, then I get dressed for the day job. Each evening I come home slip into comfy cloths, let mi perrito, Bolillo, out, and cook dinner for my honey. Every other weekend we have friends over for a pitcher of Sangria or Coronas with salt and lime and home cooked bocadillos y antojitos.
When the cooking is exceptionally delicious, easy to prepare and when I’ve remembered to measure and record as I concoct, I share the recipes with you. Alex and I hope that you’ve had a chance to cook up some of my recipes and to share wonderful meal with friends and family. Because that’s what cooking is all about, right? Cooking and eating with familia, whether bonded through blood or friendship.
The offer still stands, if you’re in the area, let us know, bring a bottle of wine or six pack of cervezas and we’ll share a meal. Until then, here are some recipes from the past 12 months. xogabriela
Wow beautiful array of dishes…
thanks! xo
My mouth is seriously watering!!!
Gaby, your kitchen is one of a kind!
This comment has nothing to do with your post – but, I saw your comment on Homesick Texan’s blog regarding Ranch Style beans and Catalina Salad.
I posted this in the comment section on her blog: My favorite use for Ranch Style Beans is in Catalina Salad. Basically, it’s lettuce, tomato, green onion, Ranch Style Beans (rinsed), Fritos, grated cheese (not pre-grated) and Catalina salad dressing. My hubby and son LOVE this salad.
Yum I love it too! A childhood favorit, I’ll use your recipe next time i make it! Love the addition of fritos.
Hello Gaby! I have been following your blog for a while now. You should def post more often–I need some more killer Mexican food recipes!!! My bf misses his mama’s home cooking
Anyways, if you ever get the chance check out my blog–mostly fashion!

Glad to meet you Carlina!I’ll be posting more oftensoon, I took a breif hiatus due to my busy day job. Oh and I’m glad you introduced yourself, I like your blog and your fashion sense! xogaby
I just found your blog…I’m from Albuquerque originally and your recipes remind me of home. Here’s hoping you can find good chilies up there.
Colin, I hope you have a chance to try some of the recipes! And thanks for the good chile vibes, I actually have a few bags of Hatch Chile hidden at the back of my freezer!
Gaby!
So, glad you sent me the facebook notice, I had no idea you cooked so well. Be careful of the food offer, you know I live just down the street! Congratulations on an amazing blog, I will definitely be following.
Be careful, ha! We need to have you over soon! You’ll be hearing from me before spring is over. xogaby
only one question: when?!?
Sooner than you think! Food requests? xogaby
. . . wish you could come home to New Mexico and cook up a storm . . . . but it looks like we might have to drop by with some Coronas for some of the bocadillos y antojitos. YUM! They look delicious!
Congrats on a year of wonderful cooking!
thank you!
Oh this is a great post. I don’t have time to check all the recipes out right now but I will tomorrow. I am definitely saving it for reading the recipes. Thanks so much. Comida con familia.
