Sandwiches aren’t usually associated with Asia, but in Vietnam, the banh mi [bahn mee] is very popular. This banh mi wrap is a take on the sandwich.

Pork Tenderloin with Apple Salsa

For a cozy weeknight dinner, try this speedy pork tenderloin recipe, complete with a refreshing apple salsa. When it comes to apple salsa, keep things simple by using an apple jelly.

Ropa Vieja Stew

A tried-and-true combination, pork and apples come together in a recipe that just screams fall. And with apple cider in the sauce and a Pink Lady apple garnish, you’ll be sure to get a taste of the seasonal favorite in every bite.

Original 8-Layer Lasagna with Bolognese Sauce

Bolognese [boh-loh-N’YEH-zeh] is prepared like a stew. Ingredients are sauteed and then simmered in liquid. Original recipes call for four hours of simmering because the meat (usually skirt steak) needed time to tenderize. The ground meat in this recipe doesn’t need time to tenderize. But it still needs time — liquids reduce, intensifying the flavor and thickening. Perfect for layering in our Original 8-Layer Lasagna with Bolognese Sauce.
