About this Cook
I may only be 24 with no cooking education and a mom who didn't cook for us when we were children, but I'm damn good at making up my own recipes!
My favorite things to cook
Authentic black bean & beef enchilada- style burritos, spicy Thai noodle shrimp & veggie stir fry, and any kind of casserole you can imagine!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Orange vanilla French toast.
My cooking triumphs
Meatloaf, which I never had before until I tried to make it.

Fiesta Chicken and Rice Bake
I liked this recipe quite a bit just because it was different. i had some chicken i needed to use up and it seemed to fill us up. I followed the directions to the tee and my rice DID cook thoroughly because i let it cook 20 minutes extra due to other reviewers saying the rice was undercooked, and to my dismay the dish was a little dry. 10-15 minutes extra is best for sure. Anyway, I grilled the chicken in taco flavoring and I only had a half cup of salsa so I added one medium sized diced tomato that i sprinkled with the taco flavor as well. On the top of the dish I also added monteray jack and colby cheese along with crushed tortilla chips. My fiance ate the 3/4 of the dish by himself he liked it so much!

Glazed Meatloaf I
Oh goodness this was amazing! I followed the recipe as written EXCEPT I used some tips from other reviewers such as adding 1/2 package of onion soup mix to the beef and using about 32 Ritz crackers (one roll in a box) instead of bread or bread crumbs. Sooo GOOD! My fiance loved it as well as several people I let try it at work the next day. I used to think meatloaf was weird and gross, but not anymore!
