I'm a university student majoring in Psychology. Living on a tight budget's pretty tough, especially when maintaining a healthy diet. My goal is to find quick, easy and nutritious recipes that I can cook up in a short amount of time to be enjoyed by many people. If I can cook something, then you can too!
My favorite things to cook
I don't really have a favorite THING to cook, but I do have a preferred WAY to cook. I like using the oven a lot, by first cooking the outside of my meats (and even some vegetables) and then putting everything in the oven to finish cooking up. This has allowed my meat dishes to be VERY tender.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Hot pot! Simple and has very rich flavors. Can't beat the soup at the end.
My cooking triumphs
Chocolate truffles, roast lamb and extravagant ice cream cookies.
My cooking tragedies
CHICKEN POT PIES. Ugh. The ones that cost a dollar at your local grocery store. Yeah, I can't cook them at all.
