I decided it was time to lead my family through a lifestyle change and start eating healthier. I absolutely love this website and how easy and organized it is.
My favorite things to cook
My fav is definately baking...its my fav thing to do around the hollidays! Wish I had more time throughout the year.
My favorite family cooking traditions
This has to be Thanksgiving and Christmas by far! It's a time for family and what better way to bring us closer than to participate in a group activity like preparing a meal we all can enjoy.
My cooking triumphs
Well now that I am trying to help my family eat healthier my cooking triumphs are when I try new healthy recipes that they love. It's not easy to get kids to eat veggies or even adults to try foods they arent familiar with. So when the family eats it and requests that I make it again I know I have suceeded.
My cooking tragedies
OOooooo that would def be the first time I attempted to make meatloaf. Important lesson learned...DON'T skimp on the ingredients. If it calls for the leanest ground beef buy it...even if it IS a few bucks more!
