I’ve written before about national food days but how about a whole month dedicated to a food group? June is National Dairy Month and Safeway stores are celebrating. I’m all for that as I attribute my intake of dairy to the fact that I have NEVER broken any bones in my life, though I’m pretty clumsy. There’s also a daily sweepstakes with tips and recipes at PackYourPicnic.com.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In preparing for this post, I had to choose a recipe that (obviously) featured dairy. What could be more appropriate than Tres Leches, a traditional Mexican\/Latin dessert literally translating to “three milks”?\u00a0A couple of years ago, I had a chance to taste this dish for the first time. It was so tasty that I asked my friend for the recipe. Well, I have not yet made it. With this project, I thought this was the perfect opportunity try out the recipe.<\/p>\n

My daughter will not be eating the finished product with us though. She’s had milk, dairy, cheese, etc. since she was young but about a year ago she began complaining of stomach aches. It turns out that she is now lactose intolerant. She can still eat small amounts of dairy with a lactate supplement but that’s more of a last resort. So while we’re munching on the dairy-filled dessert, what about my daughter? Well, we’ll get her some vegan cookies with lactose-free milk and she’ll be happy.<\/p>\n

The ingredients are pretty standard so I only needed to pick up three items (heavy whipping cream, evaporated milk, and sweetened condensed milk). I drove to Foster City to go to the Safeway store there. Even though the Safeway near my home has just been remodeled, I still like this one better. I found all the items quickly and easily. I was so happy to find store brand items since they are just as good and I didn’t want to spend a lot in case my cake turned out nasty. Anyway, my daughter helped me document the trip<\/a> and pick up a few other items we needed while we were out. She had her wheeled shoes\u00a0on\u00a0so she was fine with doing errands.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This recipe for Tres Leches was really easy but actually making the dish had to wait until the next day. It was 93 degrees and I was not about to turn on the oven!<\/p>\n

I made it right after I woke up and it was ready to eat later that day. Unfortunately, the pan I used was too big so the cake was REALLY thin. That meant it was like mush when I dished it out.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After spending the afternoon in the heat teaching our daughter to ride a bike, it didn’t matter to us what it looked like.\u00a0While my daughter was in the shower, my husband and I just lounged in the backyard. There was a fabulous breeze and the cold Tres Leches was refreshing.<\/p>\n

We really enjoyed it. In fact, we like it so much that I plan to make it again soon, but this time with a smaller pan so the cake has some substance to it.<\/p>\n
