About this Cook
I like to cook and enjoy finding new recipes.
My favorite things to cook
I'll try anything that sounds good. I don't like to bake though.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I enjoy preparing meals at Thanksgiving and Christmas with my mother and brother.
My cooking triumphs
I am proud of recipes that I have created myself...salsa fresca, sweet potato burritos, and lemon chicken pasta, to name a few.
My cooking tragedies
When I was a kid, I made instant chocolate pudding and added in a few raw eggs. I think I was going for a mousse-like effect, but my family was disgusted when I told them what was in it :)

Slow Cooker Chicken Mole
I omitted the raisins because we don't like them. I will make it again,adding some salt. I also omitted the sugar based on other reviewers' advice.

Baked Cheddar Bacon Spread
I made this for a football party. I omitted the mayo based on another reviwer's suggestion, and I used a bag of shredded cheddar for convenience. I baked it in the removable crock from my crock pot, then I put it in the crock pot heater on low after giving it some time to cool. I served it with French bread and crackers, but my guests repurposed tortilla chips for it as well. It was yummy, and I'll make it again.

Greek Couscous
I doubled the recipe so that I would have enough to bring for lunches this week. I used all chicken broth instead of some water because I did not want to waste the rest of the can. I also only used a can of garbanzo beans, which was a little scant, because I didn't want to open a second for another ounce of beans. The results were delicious.
