EMPANADAS DE QUESO 
. De chilenas no tendrán nada para muchos pero para mi siiiii 
. Cómo olvidar cuando llegaba del colegio a almorzar y ya en la puerta sentía ese olorcito a fritura maravilloso 
. Y partía a lavarme las manos con más ganas que nunca, sabiendo lo que me esperaba a la vuelta 
y es que la #recetadelaolguita no falla 
. #elbuendato 
Hoy fueron preparados con un queso deli que amo, el sabroso, cremoso y bacanoso MANTECOSO de @quesoslostilos 
. La masa solo lleva harina, aceite y agua con sal y sirve para tartas, quiches, etc, es muy versátil. Receta masa: para 24 empanadas – 750 gramos de harina – 2 cucharadas de aceite (yo uso de canola) – salmuera hasta formar la masa. *Es muy fácil de trabajar si se les pasa la humedad le ponen más harina* . 
Y ustedes consideran que son un poco chilenas o no? Tienen recuerdos de infancia? Los leo

Baking has its world celebration day on the nineteenth of May, a day in which we should all dedicate some time to baking one of our favorite treats! From cakes to breads, use your imagination and make something absolutely to die for on this day.
I could NOT stop eating this grain free + refined sugar free deliciousness last night. It’s like a crumb cake meets a gooey berry cobbler and my mind just melted. Ev and I ate half the pan in less than 20 minutes 
. I saw this recipe by @inagarten and knew I had to give it the @beachsidekitchen twist. So I swapped white flour for almond flour (more fiber + protein), swapped sour cream for Greek Yogurt (dat protein), used a little less butter and swapped in coconut sugar. It’s not quite as sweet or fluffy as hers looks, but DAMN it hits the freakin spot! . . BLUEBERRY CRUMB CAKE For the streusel: 1/2 cup coconut sugar 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg 4 tbs unsalted butter, melted 3/4 cups almond flour 1 tbs coconut flour. . For the cake: 6 tbs butter, softened 3/4 cup coconut sugar 2 eggs 1 tsp vanilla extract 1/2 tsp grated lemon zest 2/3 cup Greek yogurt 1 1/4 cups almond flour 1 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp baking soda Pinch of salt 1 cup fresh blueberries . Directions Heat oven to 350. Mix together streusel ingredients and set aside. For cake: In a bowl, cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs and stir until incorporated. Add vanilla extract, lemon zest, and Greek yogurt. Then add dry ingredients. Last, fold in the blueberries. Pour batter into a lined 8×8 baking tin or round 9 inch pan. Crumble the streusel topping evenly over cake batter. Bake for 40-55 minutes or until cooked through (I always err on the side of under baked personally). Let cool completely, then enjoy!World Hamburger Day: May 28th
Hamburgers are a classic food that is best enjoyed made outside on a grill in the beautiful spring weather. On this Thursday, why not fire up your grill after work and make your favorite hamburger to celebrate?
. One of my favourite down south getaways @thehungrymonkeyyy are smashing out some epic burgers via delivery and takeaway 
. Personally, I would go the bad boy add fried chicken (the top one), but then again, I’m just a fat boi

]]>Argentinian food isn’t well-known outside of the country itself, but the truth is that there are tons of delicious dishes to try. Here are three that you must check out during your next trip to Buenos Aires.
Asado
Asado is one of the cornerstones of Argentinian food and culture. If you find yourself in Buenos Aires, you should definitely seek out the opportunity to enjoy Asado, which isn’t just about food. While the delicious grilled meats are the centerpiece of Asado, the conversation and fraternity of the experience are also paramount.

Milanesas might be more well-known because of the Italian version of the dish, but Argentina puts its own spin on this breaded meat specialty. The large number of Italian immigrants in the city adapted to the beef-centric culture of the country and started making their own version with beef. Yum.
