I'm your basic simple cook. I like the quick and easy things or the slow cooker meals. I don't like foods that come in a box, but my husband does, so I compromise. Not much though. I'd rather have my homemade mac and cheese over Kraft's any day of the week!
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook anything Mexican or Italian. Those are my two favorite types of food. I will try anything that perks my interest though, so I have a wide variety of favorite things.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My grandmother makes the worlds best cheese grits. She's been making them since she was little and it was a recipe handed down through many generations. Now I have it and I would eat it everyday if it weren't so fattening...haha!
My cooking triumphs
Everyone loves my lasagna, enchilada's, fettucini alfredo, as well as my garlic parmesan breaded chicken breasts. I also make a rice dish that has secret ingredients that I may share with you all some day! :)
My cooking tragedies
I completely ruined a beer broiled whole chicken once. It was the most disgusting thing I've ever put in my mouth. I tried to make my own fried rice as well....and the first time was a flop. I have since mastered the fried rice though, but not the chicken. haha!
