Welcome to our Sunday Dinner series. Each Friday we will feature a recipe that you can make on Sunday to feed your family and your soul :)

Hi friend,

Sunday dinners are made for dishes that simmer slowly and bring everyone back to the table for seconds.

This week’s recipe is Ropa Vieja — tender shredded beef cooked in a rich tomato-based sauce until it’s full of flavor and comfort. It’s one of the most loved Cuban dishes for a reason.

This is the kind of meal Abuela made when time slowed down and dinner was meant to be enjoyed, not rushed.

Same result with half the time!!

What to Serve it With?

White rice, black beans, and maybe a side of platanos maduros. Then you’ve got a Sunday dinner that feels just like home.

If you make it, I’d love to see it. Tag us on Instagram or reply to this email — it truly makes our day!
