About this Cook
I am a young mother of young children (under age 5). They don't always eat what I cook because an adult can only have so much macaroni and cheese, no matter how dressed up. My kids do eat most of the things I make because I try to make things I know they'd like.
My favorite things to cook
Italian food, especially with tomato based sauces. I'm also quite good at asian stir-fry.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Thanksgiving...need I say more?
My cooking triumphs
My husband's parents came over for dinner a few weeks ago. I had one hour to prep, make and serve. I found a recipe for chicken parmesan that sounded appetizing and made it. I have never seen my Mother-in-law eat so much! We all loved it (except my kids, they wouldn't try "red chicken").
My cooking tragedies
Eggplant pizza was a disaster. I was overdue for the birth of my first child and heard that eggplant can cause labor. So I found a recipe, made it, and threw it in the trash shortly after it was done. Thank you Domino's!

Honey Coconut Salmon
I made this for a BBQ with friends. I am not a fish eater (it makes me sick) but I still tried it. It had a nice flavor but not enough to cover the fishy taste. My husband and all others who tried it LOVED it! I will definitely make it again (with some chicken on the side for me). Just remember, if you barbeque it make sure you put it in a foil boat.

PHILADELPHIA Creamy Pasta Primavera
I didn't have all the veggies called for so I used some frozen peas and carrots instead. It still turned out really good. I like it both hot and cold!

Ramen Noodle Frittata
It was good for an easy meal, but not "let's make more!" material. It was too dry and the seasoning packets added too much salt. I could have let it cook a little bit too long ergo the dryness factor. I added peas, milk, and some mozzerella cheese in the egg mixture then cooked it as directed. I might make it again, but not for a long while.
