Who doesn’t love meatloaf? My friend Kalee made this lovely loaf for our friends about three weeks ago and I decided to recreate it for my boyfriend (who hated it, because it was hard and it had onions in it…yes, I’m still bitter about it).

My Uncle’s Recipe for Baked Spanish Cod. If You Don’t Like It, I Will Be Personally Offended Because It’s My Favorite Food.
Baked Spanish fish is probably one of my most favorite foods in the whole wide world.

Masa’aa: Egyptian Version of Greek Moussaka

The Egyptian version is very similar, except there is no bechamel sauce (which is great, because its — pardon my language — a [...]
