About this Cook
I'm a homeschooling mom. I like to cook and bake, and most of the time it's my outlet. I'd go crazy if I didn't cook.
My favorite things to cook
Southern dishes, slow cooker meals, pies made from scratch
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love making chocolate dipped macaroons at Christmas time.
My cooking triumphs
I'm really good at figuring out which flavors will go great together just by smell. I'm also good at making low sodium dishes taste great.
My cooking tragedies
We all have them. It's part of the ongoing learning process!

Enchiladas Suizas
This is my favorite enchiladas recipe. I never fry the tortillas though, and one time all I had was heavy whipping cream. The heavy whipping cream was amazing in this dish and I now make it that way.

Ham Bone Soup
I didn't have a ham bone, but I have tons of leftover ham. So, I threw in a huge chunk (had to be at least 1 lb). I used black beans because I like them better and was out of kidney beans anyway. My 7yo said this soup is amazing...keeper!

Delicious Ham and Potato Soup
This soup is so amazing. I made it as stated other than guesstimating on the amounts. We nearly ate the whole pot. I think I'll be making more tomorrow! Goes great with french bread heated at 400 degrees F til crispy and buttered.
