Erin's 9th bday cake
About this Cook
I have 2 little girls, 6 & 9, and a great husband. We love to camp in our travel trailer and do things outdoors, especially in the summer/fall. I absolutely love to run and do races down in Phoenix. I aspire to running a marathon (someday!)
My favorite things to cook
Our family likes Mexican food, and I cook a lot of chicken. We try to eat as healthy and organic as possible and try to incorporate that in the foods I cook. I like making birthday cakes for my girls and I have fun planning out of the ordinary meals to take camping in our trailer.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I enjoy making family recipes handed down from my mom and mother in law but I really like trying new recipes as well to keep it interesting.
My cooking triumphs
I make a mean shrimp linguini
My cooking tragedies
My roasts never turn out!

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies I
Unlike some of the negative reviews I read that the cookies "ran" or were "greasy" or "flat disks", not at all, I thought they were excellent. I was looking for a soft, chewy, flat oatmeal cookie better than the recipe I had been using and these were delicious. I took the suggestion of someone who used a full cup of butter instead of 3/4 and they came out just like I wanted them to, not greasy, just a perfect oatmeal cookie!

Chocolate Covered Strawberries
I omitted the shortening from the recipe; the chocolate was thicker to dip still worked out fine. One tip: I put my dipped strawberries in the freezer to set the chocolate since the temp inside my kitchen was a little warm. BIG MISTAKE! I went off and forgot them in there and ruined the fruit (obviously)...Next time I'll just put them in the fridge.

Absolutely Fabulous Greek/House Dressing
This is an easy, delicious dressing. I was looking for a dressing that tasted like a greek dressing in a restaurant. I do agree that it was a bit vinegar-y, and I like vinegar. Will use more olive oil next time. Also, I used fresh garlic and didn't have onion powder so I used a little onion salt instead.
