Fried Banana Split with Dulce de Leches

While this isn’t directly Brazilian, the fried bananas and dulce de leche are(they’re also eaten in just about every Latin country in various forms of preparation). The banana split contains vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, toasted coconut, pecans, maraschino cherries, as well as the fried bananas and dulce de leches.

Pastrami Tacos

Pastrami Tacos

Pastrami Tacos

Another example of what good things marijuana can lead you to. I was getting sick of eating pastrami sandwiches, so my high ass changed it up into tacos. I diced some pastrami and sautéed it with sauerkraut. Then I heated the corn tortillas in the residual juices and assembled the tacos on the griddle; with swiss cheese and the sautéed pastrami and kraut. Finally, I topped off the tacos with finely chopped fingerling chilies. Needless to say, these tacos were amazing.

Pineapple Coleslaw

Pineapple Coleslaw

While adding pineapple to your coleslaw might sound weird, it makes so much sense once you try it. The pineapple adds the right amount of sweetness to the coleslaw, making it a necessary ingredient from now on, in my eyes.

Pineapple coleslaw is a great side to my Tennessee hot fried pork chop sandwich.
