About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake bread and desserts. I also enjoy preparing vegetarian dishes for non-vegetarians, just to show them a good meal does not have to include meat.
My favorite family cooking traditions
In the process of developing some with my son and partner.
My cooking triumphs
Cinnamon rolls, several cheesecakes, eggs benedict with home-made hollandaise sauce, home-made ravioli and a couple of filet mignons.
My cooking tragedies
A few filet mignons, 'broken' hollandaise sauce (while the guests were waiting at the table) and home-made mac & cheese.

Maple Oat Bread
Excellent! The entire family loved this bread. I used whole wheat pastry flour instead of the white flour and everything turned out great (and a little healthier). This has become the families everyday bread. No more store bought bread. Yeah!!

Refried Beans Without the Refry
Great recipe and so easy! I removed all the onions and peppers, prior to mashing the beans, pureed them with a little of the remaining water and added them back to beans and mashed. I didn't want to lose all that flavor, but my family wouldn't eat them if they were too chunky. I used the leftover cooking water for some rice, and it was soooo good. A great companion for the beans. Thanx for posting the recipe.
