About this Cook
I am a full-time working and student wife and mother of four. I never really enjoyed cooking until I had my children and learned to experiment with different recipes.
My favorite things to cook
I LOVE to cook Mexican dishes!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My favorite cooking tradition is the big Sunday meals. I remember being younger and coming in the house after church to the smells of my mother's Sunday dinner being prepared. I've adapted that tradition in my house as well and my family and friends look forward to Sundays at our house!
My cooking triumphs
I have mastered the art of preparing LARGE family holiday dinners. My husband and I love to entertain during the holidays. I find great joy in watching my family eat my meals and pat me on the back about how good the food was!
My cooking tragedies
BAKING! I don't care how carefully I follow the instructions, my baking skills suck! I've decided to leave the baking to my mother and mother-in-law and stick to cookie dough and boxed cake mix!

Cream of Mushroom Soup II
This was a great..quick recipe! I loved it and my husband who ordinarily doesn't like mushrooms gobbled it up!! The only changes I made were I added yellow onions and chopped celery finely. Wonderful to say the least!!

Slow Cooker Sweet and Tangy Chicken
Excellent! I browned my chicken in olive oil to give it a little more flavor. I added all of the ingredients and just let it go. This was an excellent recipe! I will make again.

Creole Cornbread Stuffing
I make "dressing" every holiday for my family and it has become their favorite. For New Years I decided to be creative and make a cajun-styled meal. My family LOVED this stuffing! Very nice taste, the spices blended well. I will definitely try this for the next holiday!
