About this Cook
I am a VERY new cook. I recently got married and my husband has to try all of my cooking experiments:) So far, I've enjoyed many of the recipes that I have tried from this site. I'm addicted to adding recipes to my recipe box !!!
My favorite things to cook
Anything with pasta and vegetables!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mom is such an amazing cook. She makes a lot of traditional Russian/Georgian/Armenian foods. She also just puts things together and everything always comes out great. She never uses recipes and makes the BEST food you could possibly eat!
My cooking triumphs
My husband loves my simple pasta dishes!
My cooking tragedies
Cheesecake

Mendi's Favorite Orzo
This is my go-to favorite side dish (and sometimes the main dish!). My husband and I love this dish, but I always add a lot of garlic and garlic salt to season it. So tasty and SO SO SO easy to make:)

Albino Pasta
Like many of the other reviewers I added red pepper flakes and I also addd a dash of italian seasoning. I had the issue of the parmesean cheese clumping at the end, but it was still tasty! I didn't add any veggies to the pasta and I think next time I will have it as a side dish to chicken rather than as a main dish. Simple and yummy! And a husband-pleaser:)

Penne with Chicken and Asparagus
I put 3 cloves of garlic in this recipe, plus added a lot of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper and there was still a lack of flavor. I put mushrooms in this recipe, as was suggested by the person who posted the recipe + other reviewers. My husband liked the recipe and there are a lot leftovers, which is nice. But I have to think of some ways to add some flavor to this dish. I actually would have preferred it without the chicken at all.
