About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake- muffins, loafs, breads. Anything I can stick in the oven and have it come out yummy also is good.
My favorite family cooking traditions
We make our family pierogies and I love that.
My cooking triumphs
I'm famous for my pumpkin bread and other loaves. I would have to say that baking is definitley my strong suit.
My cooking tragedies
Well, a very public tragedy when I made soup for soup day at work - and my cayenne pepper flowed a little to fast. I tried to fix it with more potatoes, more water, more tomatoes, cream etc. Nothing could fix it. I couldn't even it. It sucks becasue this was a new workplace for me and I was trying to make a good impression and I failed miserably.

Apple-Feta Tossed Salad
This was fantastic! I wanted to do something different ofr our salad with dinner. I had to use pecans instead of walnuts and used brown sugar instead of regular. I did cook the nuts in the toaster over and I left them a little too long, but they were still fabulous. I used romaine and the mixed greens (msclun mix). I did also add some red onion for just a little zing. The only thing I didn't do out of pure laziness was make the dressing. I taste tested with Raspberry Honey Vinaigrette and Lemon Poppyseed and the Lemon Poppyseed was the winner. Husband didn't have any - not his kind of salad, but that's fine I plan on eating every last bite. I had two servings if this instead of more of the main dish. Came together super easy (even easier if I pre-make the nights and store them) so I will definitely make this again! Thanks for sharing!

Mexican Potato Pancakes
Bland and kind of boring, made sure to top with salsa and cheese, but didn't eat the leftovers. Won't make again, sorry.

Lana's Sweet and Sour Meatballs
These are awesome, the first time I made the meatballs and the sauce using turkey and they were fabulous! The second time I used some pre-made japanese flavoured meatballs and the just the sauce and that was great too! I have premade and frozen the meatballs so all I have to do is come home to defrosted meatballs, make the sauce and drop them in.
