Foods from around the world

Have you ever just wanted to try something just to see if you could do it? Well I have been thinking a lot about food since my parents brought me back a cookbook from their recent journey to Canada. I would like to try new recipes from all around the world something new and different each week from a new place in the world. However, I don't want it to be something I just found off the Internet I want real family recipes that represent that culture. So to you my followers I ask a challenge of you. Present me with recipes that you are willing to share from your culture or heritage and allow me the chance to cook it, eat it and Enjoy!

Ravioli

Sadly back from vacation :( miss the beach. Oh well it's good to be back in my own kitchen and back to making food, though my fresh off the coast will be missed, yum crab! So upon returning from my vacation I realized I haven't had Italian or a version of it in a while so tonight I made a chicken ravioli  to calm my craving :).

The inside:
2 chicken breast cut very small
1/3 cup kale chopped finely
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 cup finely chopped mushrooms
2 chopped garlic cloves

In a skillet add evoo till it simmers then add above ingredients and occasionally stir till chicken is done.

Ravioli:
4 egg roll wraps

Put about a 1/3 tsp oil in pan while heating cut egg wraps in half and fill, press down sides with fork. Place in oil and let each side get golden brown, about 30 seconds. Then add all the ravioli s and a 1/3 cup water and cover immediately till ravioli is tender.

Remove and place on plate with your choice of sauce and cheese I used Prego and mozzarella cheese.

Enjoy!!!

Maybe my next recipe will be Lobster, all ready miss it!
