Breakfast And Brunch - Gils Brioche French Toast

Put the ooh-la-la into your French toast by using real brioche, the eggy, buttery bread from France. Unsweetened strawberry sauce helps cut the sweetness, and whipped cream amps up the richness. It's a special French toast for a special occasion.

Appetizers And Snacks - Salsa De Tomatillo

This is the 'salsa de tomatillo' that I grew up with. It can be used as a sauce for grilled chicken, fish or shrimp, as the basis for green chilaquiles (pour over tortilla chips, shredded cooked chicken and shredded Monterey Jack, then heat under the broiler), and as a dipping sauce for chips. Delicioso!
