Another week, another tapa and pan con tomate is probably the most delicious and easiest one out there to make. It’s also extremely cheap which is a plus because it is basically bread, tomatoes, garlic, olive oil and a little bit of salt. Pretty much everything you can find in your house. This recipe somewhat […]
Chorizo a la Sidra, aka chorizo cooked in cider, is another classic spanish tapa and it is perfect for our TAPA TUESDAY menu! For those of you who have been following this blog for the past year, know that my wife LOVES chorizo, and thankfully a lot of spanish tapas have chorizo in it. So […]
Papas arrugadas, translates to wrinkled potatoes and it is another classic spanish tapa. As we continue to explore all the spanish tapas there are, I want you to know that potatoes are my weakness, which is a good thing that a lot of spanish tapas have potatoes in them. I legitimately cannot go out to […]

This delicious tomato bisque recipe gives you just that. What is the difference between a tomato bisque and tomato soup? The difference is the creamy texture […]
