I'm a mom, wife, and grandma who hasn't even hit the half century mark, yet. I love to cook and will try new things, as long as it's quick. I work a full- time job so am always up for simple and speedy meal ideas. I love to cook Chicken and Mexican dishes. The more cheese the better, however I'm trying to lose weight; so I've been testing low- cal recipes. Thanksgiving dinner and Easter ham. My mother- in- law passed down and old family recipe for stuffing, definetely a crowd pleaser. My very first Thanksgiving meal, yes all the trimmings, prepared all without any help. There were no left- overs, so I'm thinking it must of been tasty. Cooking long- grain rice, on the stove top. What a pain! The best gift I've ever received was my veggie/ rice steamer. A God- send for sure.
