Queso is Spanish for cheese. This dish is really easy, very forgiving, and exceptionally tasty if you’re a cheese fan. If you can clean out the fridge and melt cheese, then you can make queso. Baked potatoes are optional.

Giordano’s Take Away for the UK
Well, here it is. THE Giordano’s Pizza and if I say so myself, this was awesome. We love Giordano’s, and the thought of going back to the UK without being able to get hold of one of their pizzas is distressing, to say the least. Armed with this recipe we can relax !
Motown Pizza
As I’ve discovered, especially since living in the USA, there’s more to pizza choices than just “thin crust or deep pan”. Detroit style is one of our favourites, and has a distinct texture and flavour….but needs love and attention (and the right cheese !) to make properly.
Figgy Caprese
The simplest of dishes, made wonderful when the ingredients are the best you can get hold of. In this case, market sourced and artisan made. Delicious.
Eeeeeelotes !
We first came across Elotes, or Mexican Street Corn, at our first baseball game in the USA and were hooked. In the American Mid West, (sweet)corn is a staple and the Mexicans taught them how to jazz it up.
Chicago “Hometown” Pizza
Show this to an Italian and the last thing they’d call it is a pizza. Even the locals call this “pie”…but without doubt it’s a delicious pie. No subtlety to this dish…this is cheese, this is tomato SAUCE, and optionally whatever else you want in there. Loaded deep and in a pie crust.
