About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
Anything really. I love it when people are like, wow how much effort when in to this... I love it when my husband says he would rather stay home and eat my food then eat out. He's been all over the world and tried everything so that is truly an ultimate compliment to me.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every Sunday when I was a teenager in my parents house, it was my job to make spaghetti for dinner. My parents would always invite people over to try my different adventures in pasta!
My cooking triumphs
Well over a year ago I gave up my microwave and it's unbelievable the stuff I have learned to do now that I don't have it. (Long story short my kids lit it on fire with some popcorn...LOL) I enjoy cooking a hundred percent more now and everything tastes so much better. My friends/parents are considering giving up theirs now too because we've been such a success without it.
My cooking tragedies
When I was younger I attempted a spaghetti with a sweet/sour sauce... It came out horrible and I was so embaressed!!! so much for that idea, I don't suggest trying it. It truly was horrific, straight off the plate to the trash...

Slow Cooker Chicken Stroganoff
OH MY GOSH DOES THIS SMELL GOOD TO COME HOME TO!!!! I could smell it outside my house. This is an awesome recipe because you play with it in so many ways. If you like this with homemade noodles or rice go for it. I used an onion soup packet instead of the dressing mix. You can add any veggies you would find ina pot pie like carrots, potatoes, etc than use krusteaz for a crust or pillsbury biscuits on top for chicken and dumplings... the list goes on and on. the idea of cooking the chicken alone for a roasted flavor is incredible and I will be doing this a LOT. THANKS FOR THE RECIPE!!!

One Pot Pinto Beans
Ok so I had made a pumpkin soup a few days ago that had lots of leftovers. So I used that as a base for this. I poured in probably 1-2c pumpkin puree and 7 c water with only 2 packets of condensed chicken broth. Kept adding water as needed. Came out EXCELLENT! Also carmelized the onions and garlic before adding to the pot. My kids can't stand to know they're eating them so this helps them blend in. Very good and very healthy. I intend on playing with this one a LOT!

Sarah's Banana Bread Muffins
These seemedjust a little dry. I only put in 1/2 c brown sugar instead of the 1 c. white sugar. Came out really great! Everybody loved them. Also to make them a little bit healthier try using a different oil. I made these with grapeseed oil but next time I may try coconut oil. YUM!
