About this Cook
I am a high school teacher and really enjoy experimenting with my cooking during the summer when I have some off time. I have a family of very picky eaters and this makes my cooking a challenge.
My favorite things to cook
I love cooking on the grill!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Sundays are family meal days (because everyone is constantly going in different directions) and this is the day when I put my best foot forward and even splurge on making fabulous desserts!
My cooking triumphs
I have finally settled on what I believe is the best grilled steak! It has taken many attempts that my family has enjoyed along the way!
My cooking tragedies
There are many of these which is to be expected from a self-trained "chef" experimenting with many flavor combinations.

Beefy Taco Dip
I used neufchatel cream cheese (lighter version) and increased to 1 package. Made dip a perfect consistency to dip with tortilla chips. Very hearty and tasty dip.

Chicken Nacho Tacos
I'm not much on canned meat so I put boneless chicken breasts (5) in the crock pot with chicken broth for 9 hours on low while I was at work. When I got home I removed chicken from crock pot, shredded and then followed recipe minus chili powder. My kids don't like spicy food so the Fiesta Nacho Cheese sauce was spicy enough for us. I did use 2 cans of cheese add 1/2 can of milk for the consistency we like. It's not gourmet, but it was quick, easy and tasty!
