El JayElRizz Sopes

This Mexican dish was brought to you by Mr. JayElRizz, which is I, the one who writes all these blogs. I got the idea while looking at the tortilla section at Publix Super Markets. What is Sopes? I have never seen this type of tortilla before but I knew that I can make something good out of it. I had a little help by my Assistant and significant other Jennifer. This dish was not that hard to do, the pictures explain itself. The salad part was not hard, just shredded cabbage or buy shredded cabbage and dice 2 small tomatoes. Add vinegar, salt and mix and your ready. Heat up the re fried beans in a pan or microwave. Like I said before the pictures are self explanatory, I really don't want to put my recipe because I just did it freehand. But if your interested in how I did this please send me an email at dment1food@gmail.com Or leave it in a comment. Thank you and enjoy!

Annie Chung's Vietnamese Style Pho

I havent done a product review in a long a long time but now is the time to do so! I bought this soup at Target a couple weeks back and I never had the time to sit down and eat it. What led me to buy this was that it is PHO, and I had never had that type of soup before. I know it is not the authentic one but I still wanted to try it out so that one day I can actually go to a resteraunt that serves PHO and try it out. The instructions on this is really easy so it is impossible to fuck this up.  The packaging states "Cooked Hokkien noodes in a rich and flavorful beef broth",  never had Hokkien noodles but tastes pretty good! The spice meter says Mild but I think it is close to medium. It is a little bit spicey but enjoyable. I recommend this product who ever likes microwavable soups! Enjoy!

Ham And Cheese Crispy Pastelito

This dish was brought to you by my Significant other Jennifer. She used the left over Phyllo dough that wasn't used from the Spanakopita recipe. She used sliced Ham and Muenster Cheese to make this dish. To be honest I thought I was eating a Cuban Pastelito for a second because there was a familiarity to the texture and taste. Overall It was delicious and I hope my girl friend can make more dishes with phyllo dough.

Egg in the hole CheeseBurgers



Today's Brunch was brought to you by my Significant other Jennifer. I saw this recipe on Facebook on Buzzfeed Food, if you want to see the short clip, click HERE. My girlfriend saw that I shared that recipe so she decided to make this for me today. The only difference Is that instead of burger buns she used Cuban bread. Hey that's what we Latino people do, we eat alot of Cuban bread and honestly the bread Is very tasty! My girlfriend forgot to take the picture of the egg part but that Is okay. Very good meal indeed I suggest everyone try it out.

Spanakopita (Greek Spinach Pie)

This dish was brought to you by my Significant other Jennifer. She was motivated to make this dish because she tried it from someone else and she loved it, so she decided to make It for me. She used this recipe to make this dish at http://allrecipes.com/recipe/18417/spanakopita-greek-spinach-pie/ . All credits go to SILVERWOLF for this recipe guide.

This dish was really tasty, I am a big sucker for spinach dishes. The crust was nice and crispy. I already had 2 plates and half. My girlfriend is not content with her dish but in my opinion it was really good. Keep trying harder next time and always try to do better. Study the taste and analyze what you think needs more. Always take your time because patience makes it more rewarding. You still did great so keep making more food so I can enjoy every time.


Ingredients
3 tablespoons olive oil. 1 large onion, chopped. 1 bunch green onions, chopped. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 2 pounds spinach, rinsed and chopped. 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley. 2 eggs, lightly beaten. 1/2 cup ricotta cheese. 1 cup crumbled feta cheese. 8 sheets phyllo dough. 1/4 cup olive oil.

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly oil a 9x9 inch square baking pan.

Step 2
Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute onion, green onions and garlic, until soft and lightly browned. Stir in spinach and parsley, and continue to saute until spinach is limp, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Step 3
In a medium bowl, mix together eggs, ricotta, and feta. Stir in spinach mixture. Lay 1 sheet of phyllo dough in prepared baking pan, and brush lightly with olive oil. Lay another sheet of phyllo dough on top, brush with olive oil, and repeat process with two more sheets of phyllo. The sheets will overlap the pan. Spread spinach and cheese mixture into pan and fold overhanging dough over filling. Brush with oil, then layer remaining 4 sheets of phyllo dough, brushing each with oil. Tuck overhanging dough into pan to seal filling.

Step 4
Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until golden brown. Cut into squares and serve while hot.
