Rose Burgers
The recipe for Rose burgers comes from my armenian great-grandmother, Rose Solokian, who escaped the Armenian genocide in the early 1900’s and found her way to USA. We also more commonly call these Nama burgers because nama is what our family traditionally calls our grandmother, though I’m not quite sure if this was a regional word for the Solokians or if it slipped into our family vernacular because of the travels of our Armenian ancestors.
Pumpkin Pie
The pumpkin pie is a favorite holiday dessert for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Eggnog Cheesecake
The eggnog cheesecake is a typical Christmas dessert in our family.
Bacon Cheddar Dip
The bacon cheddar dip is a recipe from our cousin’s mother-in-law from the early 00’s that we just got around to making for the first time in 2021. It was great with Fritos and Tostitos.
