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.

Roast Beef Stuffed Shells
Wow! I have been wanting to try these forever - but I just wasn't sure - the combo just didn't want to work in my head. Well, I made it last night and I am kicking myself for not doing them earlier. I did scale it down for 2 people. I used a roast beef I had made on the weekend, the gravy was from that as well. I had some frozen pre-cooked shells from another recipe and this made the dish ready to bake in under 10 minutes. I will definitely make this again and again. It was delicous - the combination of the horseradish and the gravy was so good! I couldn't realy taste the cheese and I am not sure if it is needed so when I do make it again I might leave it out. Thanks CNM!

Oatmeal Pancakes II
These were really pretty good - I used half whole wheat flour and half regular white - the mixture was quite thin so I added another 1/4 cup of flour. I also used Splenda and did the milk with lemon juice trick for the buttermilk. I did add raspberries and blackberries and that really made them yummy. If ihadn't they would have been really boring. Still, will probably make again adding more vanilla and definitely the fruit.

Serbian Ground Beef, Veggie, and Potato Bake
Yeah, this just wasn't the thing for us. My husband put this firmly on the no thanks list. It was very bland and I doubled all the seasonings. I also added 2 more potatoes and it was still not enough. I actually liked it, but definitely not enough to make again. The only things I didn't do was use wine as I didn't have any (used beef broth instead) and left out the carrot. Cannot see how either of these would have made the recipe any more appealing. Sorry, not a fan.
