My cooking tragedies
Many underdone baked potatoes

Frugal Pumpkin Pasta
Neither great nor horrible. The kids wouldn't eat it. I used Feta because that's what I had. Maybe more Feta would make it better. Overall, it just needed to be more robust.

Caramel Apple Pork Chops
An instant favorite! I broiled the chops while cooking the apples on the stove. I boiled a large sweet potato at the same time for mashed sweet potatoes. Start to finish was 20 min for the whole meal! I did double the sauce, but I think the totally depends on the size of your apples. I also think broiling or grilling is always best for pork chops. They have to cook fast or they dry out.

Salmon Patties III
I added some dill and lemon juice. Pretty good. It could be really quick with some canned or pouch salmon and instant potatoes, but that might make it lose a star.
