About this Cook
I'm 29 years old and have a wonderful husband who I've been with for 10 years. We have a full household of 2 dogs, 1 cockatiel, and 1 cat. I love cooking for 2 and for large gatherings.
My favorite things to cook
Mexican food, Italian food, casseroles, slow cooker meals, and Thanksgiving dinner!
My cooking tragedies
Our first time smoking meat was a nightmare! We left the meat on too long and because of the wind, the smoke kept going away and the temp. was getting too low. After tending to the smoker for 10 hours, we had a big loaf of unedible meat!

Bacon Wrapped Water Chestnuts III
These were ok. I cooked them extra long at first to make sure they were crispy. Then I only used 1/2 the sauce since I just wanted them slightly coated. The flavor seemed like it was missing something.

Baked Paprika-Parmesan Chicken
This was wonderful!! I followed the recipe exactly, except for the cooking time - It only needed to be cooked for 50 min. It smelled up the house and was some of the best baked chicken that I've had in a long time!

Roasted Chickpeas
WONDERFUL HEALTHY SNACK!! These reminded me of corn nuts and I love corn nuts! I did follow one of the other reviews and dry roasted them. I didn't use any oil or seasoning at first, then baked them at 450 for 30 min. I took them out and 1/2 - seasoned with cajun seasoning and the other 1/2 seasoned with a couple TBL of ranch mix. They started to get soft, so I put them back in the oven for about another 15-20 min. I shook them the entire time I cooked them about every 7-10 min so they wouldn't burn. They turned out really crispy. I will add these to my regular snack menu since they are so healthy and great tasting!!
