About this Cook
I'm in my final year of an Accounting degree so I don't find much time for cooking, but really enjoy gathering new recipes I want to try and entertaining friends and family when I take a night off studying.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Christmas cookies! Thumbprints, shortbread, poppycock, butter tarts and anything new mom wanted to try.
My cooking tragedies
A huge pot of Chef Michael Smith's Beef Stew. I don't know what I did, or which flavour we didn't like, but the entire soup pot went into the garbage!
Recipe Reviews 6 reviews
Quinoa and Black Beans
This was fantastic and it makes a HUGE batch! My bf has decided he is not a fan of cumin, so next time I'll have to try another flavouring, but all in all, this is a keeper. Should be good with add-ins like tomato, zucchini, etc. And only use 1 can of beans, perfect ratio!

Soft Giant Pretzels
To dunk the pretzels: Use a large pot, and place your pretzel into a metal strainer or sieve. The sieve allows you to properly bathe your pretzel, and makes it so easy to bring out, drain and flop onto paper towels. Fantastic recipe!

Gluehwein
It's great, but I tried following one of the other reviews, and changed the water for OJ, and it made it much too sweet. It's perfect just the way it is.
