About this Cook
I am a mom. I was a trained chef. :)I have 8 slow cookers, and I use them a lot. I was recently diagnosed with diabetes and am learning how to deal with that.
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook chicken. I have many food allergies, so I cook my own food from scratch and adapt some of the recipes that I find on this site.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I can cook just about any kind of food, we don't really have any food traditions.
My cooking triumphs
I make the best ribs and cheesecake in the world.
My cooking tragedies
I got hurt at work and can no longer work as a professional chef.

Butter Bean Burgers
WOW this is good! I couldn't flip the "burgers" so I put it all in a casserole dish, sprayed with PAM, and baked it for 30 mins at 400. It tastes amazing! I didn't use the oil so that cuts down A LOT of the calories - and makes it stick ;) Also, I used 1/2c panko breadcrumbs instead of crackers as I didn't have any.

Tofu Keema
This is so good! I really like the texture of the frozen/thawed tofu! The only thing I changed was not adding any oil, I just used a non-stick pan and it saved me a lot of calories per serving!

Greek Souzoukaklia
This was really good. I had to omit the raisins as I am diabetic and they are not good for me but it was tasty anyways. I added cumin for a little more flavor and grilled them on the skewers, but they fell off the skewers so they became long burgers. Oh well, it didn't change the flavor. I also roasted some whole sweet potatoes with the meat and added some steamed dijon broccoli to make a complete meal. I will make this again.
