Thanks for joining me in my very first “Cooking with Sandra” demo show! I love cooking. Since several of my friends don’t really know how to cook a lot of dishes, they’ve been asking me to teach them how to cook.
So it looks like you’re now part of my friendships group because I’m sharing it with the whole world too! My company’s name, Sandra’s Whole World Foods betrays the diversity of foods that come out of my kitchen. Even though we live in Cabo San Lucas on the lower tip of the Baja Penisula we cook a variety of ethnic dishes, not just Mexican.
This Swiss Chard and Crab Quiche Recipe just came to my head one day so I decided to be spontaneous one morning and give it a try. Swiss chard seemed to be delicate enough to pair well with imitation crab so I went with this combination of ingredients. I was happily surprised when it turned out very tasty. Hope you like it too! I used 1 pie crust, just double this easy recipe for any 2 crust pie: 1 C flour 1/2 t salt Mix together in a bowl. Gently stir in 1/8 C + 1 T water along with 1/4 C + 1 T oil, I used avocado oil because it can be heated to high temperatures and retain its healthy benefits.
Roll out dough with a rolling pin between 2 sheets of wax paper: Rub a little water around on the counter and place 1 sheet of was paper on top (that way it sticks), and the ball of dough on top of that. Then top with the 2nd sheet of wax paper and roll away! Filling: 2 large sticks of celery chopped 1/2 small onion 2-3 cloves garlic chopped You can sautee these together which I did or use raw. 6 sticks or about 2 C sliced 1/2 inch thick imitation crab meat 1 large bunch swiss chard wilted, chopped and drained. You can substitute frozen, thaw and drain. 1 C white melty cheese or any type you prefer 4 eggs beaten approx. 1/3 C egg whites or more 1/2 t salt Milk, approx. 3/4 C, more if not enough ingredients to fill pie pan.
1 Roma or other firm tomato sliced into rounds to top quiche before baking. Combine filling ingredients and pour into the pie-crust-lined pie pan. Top with tomato slices. Bake for 20 min on 375 F or until the crust starts to turn brown. Lower temp to 350F and bake total time for about an hour or until a butter knife inserted in center comes out clean. Stay tuned for upcoming demos on making other dishes and cocktails! Saludos, Sandra
The name Toro, meaning “bull” in Spanish and “tuna belly” in Japanese, sets the stage for specialties seasoned with Pan Latin flair. Overlooking the beautiful surroundings of Punta Ballena, the restaurant serves ceviche bar, small plates for sharing, grilled entrees and an impressive selection of signature cocktails and Latin wines.
A common location for winter whale sightings, the restaurant’s patio boasts an artfully designed whale fountain for guests to enjoy while taking in the ocean views.
The Toro concept comes from acclaimed chef and restaurateur Richard Sandoval, recognized as the “Father of modern Mexican cuisine,” who has an international collection of 40 Latin American-inspired restaurants worldwide.
At Toro, he masterfully blends Pan Latin cuisine with South American, Japanese and Chinese influences.

At the far southern tip of the remarkable and diverse Baja peninsula lies Cabo San Lucas Bay. The famous Land’s End is where the mighty Pacific meets the lush Sea of Cortez. The iconic arch at Land’s end is one of the most photogenic features in all of the Baja. Take a glass bottom panga to Lovers Beach and enjoy calm waters and abundant sea life.
This once sleepy fishing village has been transformed into the one of the most vibrant and luxurious destinations in the world. And why not? With its perfect combination of gorgeous beaches, perfect weather, frolicking whales and luxury resorts and villas. Add to that limitless water sports, abundant culinary options and the endless festive fun of Medano Beach makes Cabo San Lucas Bay the epicenter of Los Cabos.
As we embark on a new decade let’s take a tour of this wonderful area of delightful Mexico. The San Lucas Marina is adjacent to the beach and was dredged into existence beginning in 1974, the same year of statehood for Baja California Sur. Since then it has been like a gold rush for developers of oceanfront resorts and real estate. The word is out and tourism has eclipsed all other industries. For those missing the good old quiet spirit of the Baja fear not, there is more shoreline than Florida and less than 750 thousand people.
So with all the amazing resorts, clean beaches, fantastic restaurants and warm hearted locals, isn’t it time to book your next vacation to Los Cabos? Remember that a week is far too short to fully grasp the mysterious draw of Cabo so extend that itinerary or better yet consider a permanent move. Life is far too short to be cold and miserable.
You might find a permanent smile stuck on your face. Is it the endless margaritas or maybe the permanent tan? In any event whether you come for a short vacation, a 6 month escape or a permanent relocation, let us assist you. We know the finest that Los Cabos has to offer. It is our pleasure to assist you, Cabos Finest your insiders guide to Los Cabos.
