My favorite family cooking traditions
From scratch, no pre made or boxed.
My cooking triumphs
In 23 years of cooking for my husband and boys, I have only made two items that went wrong.
My cooking tragedies
Key lime pie (never set up). Beef stew one time put in fresh herbs and family didn't like.

Chicken with Chipotle
I had a 1/2 can of chiptole peppers left over from a salsa my husband made. I found this recipe to use it up. It was very easy and very good. I used BLSL Chick. breasts and cooked in pan with olive oil and some garlic. Then added the sauce to pan to cook with chicken. I did thicken up the sauce a bit. I served with mexican rice and beans. Will definitly make again. It had the right amount of 'kick' to it. We like things spicy.

Almost No Fat Banana Bread
For a almost no fat banana bread this was VERY good. I lessen the sugar to 1/2 cup, increased cinnamon to 1 1/2 t. and added some vanilla. I made into 12 muffins instead, and it took 20 min. to cook. I will definitly make again. A great way to use up over ripe bananas and have a healthy snack!
