About this Cook
I'm a professional artist and designer. I have a husband and dog named Oswald.
My favorite things to cook
Anything good - and easy under 1/2 hour is best. My attention span ain't that long...
My favorite family cooking traditions
Chicken Paprikash. And lots of things traditionally English.
My cooking triumphs
Salmon stuffed shells - my own recipe. Barbecue Chicken Pizza, Lentil Soup
My cooking tragedies
Black eyed peas and ham. My husband wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. Not that it was bad - he just wouldn't touch it...

Zucchini Corn Fritters
This was very good and we will make these again. I would recommend a little more salt as I didn't add enough and I left out the cumin, tho (not a fan of it) - they were great with Wildflower Honey! My husband ate them with Blue Cheese dressing.

Golden Tuna Casserole
This is really really good. I've been looking for a recipe that was different from Chicken Noodle version and this is the one I am hanging on to. I think this could easily be made with a canned ham as well!

Stuffed Leg of Lamb with Balsamic-Fig-Basil Sauce
Even after missing a few ingredients (corriander and mint) I still made this dish. I substituted canned plums in syrup for the figs and this recipe was just wonderful. The fruit flavors went very well with the lamb - everyone loved it. I recommend only allowing the lamb to reach an internal temp of 150 (about medium well) but it's up to your personal preference. I will definitely make this again. My husband loved it - and never liked lamb prior to this. Thanks for the post. Laura Swink
