About this Cook
Although I've been cooking for a long time, I was a divorced mother of three working full time. So, if you are what you eat, I was cheap, fast and easy for many years. My kids are now mostly grown, I've remarried (to a man who can throw things together and it turns out delicious every time!) and I'm no longer working. Now I have the time to play in the kitchen and I'm having a ball! This website has helped me deceive my husband into believing I am a decent cook. Awesome!
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake, but I also love to fit into my clothes. So, I save the baking for birthdays and major holidays. Originally from the midwest, I moved to New Mexico and developed a real taste for the hot and spicy. I love to make Mexican food and crank up the heat!

Hawaiian Chicken Kabobs
Spectacular dish! I'm a little tired of chicken right now, (unless it's fried) so I tried this with chunks of pork tenderloin. Oh my! Melt-in-your mouth. I followed all of the recommendations of kajewski. I also used fresh pineapple instead of canned (heavenly), also skewered red and orange bell peppers, Vidalia onions, and I doubled the marinade mixture so I would have plenty to work with when adding the cornstarch. I marinaded my meat and vegetables in seperate containers. I served this over Asian Coconut Rice, submitted by silvrezs, added Sunkist Honey Roasted Almond Accents (a salad topper) per reviews. I had a little marinade/cornstarch mixture left over, so I drizzled that over everything. Rave reviews from my family and our dinner guest. I will make this again. Go ahead, try this with pork tenderloin. You will not be disappointed. Thanks for sharing dailyn2003!

Grilled Greek-Style Zucchini
This was very, very good! I used 1/4 Vidalia onion and two cloves of garlic, minced. This was easy to make, took very little prep time and tasted delicious! I will be coming back to this one again and again. Thank you, Betty Washburn for this submission.
