About this Cook
I love to cook for people! I enjoy trying recipes and putting my own spin on traditional ones. I cook mostly by instinct which makes writing down recipes difficult but makes cooking fun and different every meal. I also enjoying baking even though it is more of a precise science than cooking...but the end result is so sweet!
My favorite things to cook
I am a casserole addict! They are so quick to make and can be varied to personal tastes easily which is great for us because we have picky eaters in my house. I also love making desserts, especially cookies and bars.
My favorite family cooking traditions
During Christmas time I love to make candies and sweets to give as gifts or just to have for guests during parties and gatherings. This is certainly my favorite time of year.

Pizza Pinwheels
Easy, tasty, quick recipe! And honestly you don't even need the recipe itself...just the ingedients list. I didn't have any problems with oozing but I also didn't overload the crescent with too much sauce. Freezing is a great tip...but if you're short on time like I always am...then just cut them after baking & cooling. I used a butcher style knife so that I didn't have to drag the knife and cause a mess. Works great! Oh and I also found garlic crescent rolls which are awesome for this recipe.

Tater Taco Casserole
SO GOOD! My boyfriend couldn't get enough of this tasty dish. I pretty much stuck to the original recipe with just a few minor changes...I added black beans as well as 8oz of sourcream to the mix. I also cook my tater tots while I was prepping the casserole so they were about half cooked and I also put tots on bottom of dish covered with mixture then added more tots to the top and covered with cheese when almost finished cooking and turned to broil the last 2-3 minutes to get the tots on the top crispy...very good! This will be a regular dish in our house.

Warm Crab Parmesan Dip
I love crab and hoped this dip would be more "crabby" than it is but I give 4 stars because it is a great dip made just as the recipe is written...to make mine more "crabby" I added an extra can of crab meat (real thing no imitation) and also changed the sour cream and mayo both to the light versions...and in a pinch had to use garlic powder rather than fresh cloves but still turned out yummy!
