Empanadas are Mexican-style pastries filled with meat, vegetables, or even dessert. This family-sized version is known as an empanada gallega. It's served in wedges like a stuffed pizza. Pork Carnitas would also be a delicious filling. Leftovers are best reheated in the oven.
This California Club Sandwich recipe contains bacon strips, ranch salad dressing, boneless skinless chicken breast halves, sourdough bread, ripe avocado and more.
This chowder is like a bacon-topped baked potato in a bowl. On cold winter days, my family is thrilled to see this meal on the table. --Jacque Manning, Burbank, South Dakota
