What traditional spicy recipes have been in your family for generations?

I was born in San Antonio, TX in 1958.
 
I am 100% Hungarian.
 
I grew up eating stuffed cabbages.
 
Kolache.
 
Gulyas.
 
Colbasse.
 
Ever dang 'thang paprikash.
 
And si senor.
 
Stuffed peppers.
 
Pops was military.
 
We moved around a lot.
 
And then one day we came home to Texas.
 
My family then turned into a bunch of Mexicans.
 
My dear sweet mother is 80 years old.
 
She has all of her teeth.
 
And has no problem biting into a jalapeno picked straight from the vine.
 
Or biting into a field onion like it was an apple.
 
I got that from her too.
 
I have never eaten a single clove of garlic.
 
I always cook and eat at least 40 at a time.
 
Recipes?

We just start throwing shit into a pot.
