About this Cook
Started cooking when I was 20. Never knew food could taste so good. (My working mom was an indifferent cook -- everything tasted the same. When we had dinner we knew what it would taste like because she never experimented and used the same recipes over and over.)
My favorite things to cook
Chicken is #1! So many ways to cook it. #2 is beef. Roasts, hamburg, etc. #3 is vegetables. I grew up eating canned veggies and hated them. Now I have discovered how great fresh and frozen veggies are and the many various ways to cook them.
My cooking triumphs
Cooking fresh fish
My cooking tragedies
Cooking a pot roast that was so well done no one could eat it.

French Dressing II
Absolutely delicious. I followed hints from 2 reviews and substituted worcestershire sauce for the liquid smoke and pureed in a blender. Everyone loved it. Goodbye bottled dressing.

Slow Cooker Green Beans, Ham and Potatoes
Instead of water use low sodium chicken broth. Substitute 1-1/2 to 2 pound boneless uncooked port butt for the ham hocks. Omit chicken bouillon granules. Combine all ingredients including seasonings and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Take out pork butt and cut into chucks after cooling for about 20 minutes. Put butt back into crock pot with other ingredients. A very hearty, enjoyable meal.

Simply Divine Meat Loaf with Spinach
This recipe is easy and very good. Only change I made was to add two cups of spinach instead of one. Served it with "Crockery Cooking" gravy mix (first ingredient in mix is beef with broth). Excellent and even better the next day.
