I am a working (mostly part time) mom of 2. My husband and I are mostly vegetarian with him and the kids eating meat rarely and chicken sometimes. I try to cook within the season and shop locally grown produce. We have pledged to stop eating out and start eating only minimally processed foods. That is why I am here, I love to cook but having children in scouts and soccer has made me lazy and short on time. I need to learn some new recipes that are healthy.
My favorite things to cook
Mexican, Italian, Slow Cooker friendly foods, all fall foods.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Conchitas - (mexican pasta) it heals all that ails you!
My cooking triumphs
I do a great homemade red sauce...and I taught myself how to do it.
My cooking tragedies
caramel apple pie. I must have done something wrong. It was tart and lumpy and it was supposed to be for my in laws Thanksgiving Dinner!
