About this Cook
I am 34 years old and a mom of 3. I love to cook. When I cook, my kids are right there with me learning. My 12 year old son prides himself on being able to know what spices are missing from dishes. My 11 year old daughter enjoys searching for new recipes and plating dishes to make them look as good as they taste and my 10 year old son makes the best country ham I have ever tasted! With this, my children's palates are growing every meal. Always, safety is the highest priority, but the bonding is priceless.
My favorite things to cook
Sausage Bread, Bacon Swiss Bread, Super Nachos, Beef Burgundy & Roasted "Burnt" Green Beans
My favorite family cooking traditions
Cooking together no matter what it is.
My cooking triumphs
Making food that my kids ask for over and over again.
My cooking tragedies
The first time I made sauage gravy was horrible! It looked like paste. Needless to say, I got it figured out & now I am teaching my kids how to do it.

Microwave Popcorn
It's one of those stupid simple things! Great for Weight Watchers if you just put the kernels in by themselves. 1/4 cup kernels makes about 4 cups & it is only 1 point.

Serious Herb Cheese Spread
I traded the fresh herbs for 1/8 cup dried except for the dill & I only used about 2 tbsp of that, since it is pretty strong. This stuff is awesome on triscuits!

Speedy Salmon Patties
I use the vac-u-sealed packs of salmon and dry mustard and several more crackers. I was out of Worcestershire, but that will be added next time! Yummy!
