About this Cook
I'm a newly-wed to the military! Married in June my husband and I are enjoying our time at Ft. Benning.
My favorite things to cook
Desserts...and anything involving a can of "cream of something" soup because it makes you look like you know what's what!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mom always used to make homemade bread and butter, without a bread machine! I've started making bread (thanks to this site) but have yet to perfect it.
My cooking triumphs
*Homemade banana pudding!! We were going to our first get-together with some friends for 4th of July and I made a pudding that actually resembled PUDDING and not mush! (and it even tasted good!) *Bread and scones (from scratch) *Chocolate Pudding :-D
My cooking tragedies
Probably the discover that you cant substitute lemon EXTRACT for lemon JUICE. Call me crazy, or absent minded, but it took a while to pick up on the fact that they're just not the same thing! :-/

Fluffy Carrot Muffins with Cream Cheese Frosting
This is a great recipe as is I'm sure, but I did make some modifications based on my mood/preference. 1) I used 1/2 AP and 1/2 Whole Wheat Flour 2) I used 1/2 c veg. oil and subbed the rest using ground flax seed with cinnamon (yay fiber) 3) Added raisins and walnuts to mix 4) Used a little less sugar, not sure how much just "eyed" it 5) Added a few shakes of all spice. I also made a few mini muffins so I could snack while the big ones cooled. :-D I didn't prepare the frosting since I'm pregnant and want to attempt to control myself (I knew I'd be eating as many of these as I could before my husband got to them so I figured I'd skip the extra sugar.) They taste great straight from the oven although I will experiment with freezing a few of these. *If you double this recipe, you won't regret it!* Thanks!!

Ginger Glazed Mahi Mahi
This was phenomenal! I didn't really follow the exact measurements for each ingredient, just looked at the list and added a splash and a dash here and there. The hubby said it was "awesome" and was sad that fish doesn't seem to keep well overnight once cooked :-( (I served this with mashed sweet potatoes and steamed broccoli/squash. It looked great on the plate and tasted even better!) Thanks so much!

Vegan Brownies
What a great little brownie! I'm not vegan but I needed a recipe that didn't include traditional brownie ingredients (eggs, butter, etc) because I didn't have any on hand and this recipe was a life saver! I spooned the (wonderfully gooey) batter by the TBSP into greased muffin tins and baked 20 min. Once they cool I will flatten them and top with hot fudge, pudding and a chocolate covered cherry for a unique brownie/cake treat. Thanks for the recipe!
