I am a student majoring in dietetics. I graduate soon and will be a registered dietitian in about a year. I discovered how much I love to cook when I started my current job a year and a half ago. I am a cook at a treatment center for girls with eating disorders. I love my job for lots of reasons, one of which is the cooking!
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake treats.
I also like to cook. My favorite things to cook are dishes filled with vegetables that taste fantastic!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mom loves to bake treats even more than I do! (Clearly that's where I get it from.) When we get together as family it is usually on a Sunday and we bake, bake, bake! Always on the recipe list are our favorite chocolate chip cookies - the "Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies".
My cooking triumphs
Last summer I made dinner for me and my husband's anneversiary. We grilled a pizza, starting with raw dough and everything. It was a BBQ chicken pizza and it was delicious.
My cooking tragedies
One of the first days I started my job I had to make sloppy joes. One of the easiest things in the book right? Well, apparently not for me. I burnt them - pretty bad. Someone mentioned to me after the meal that I might want to alter the sloppy joe recipe because they tasted like ciggarettes! I assured them I'd throw the recipe away (I didn't mention that the ciggarette taste was really all my fault!)
