About this Cook
I love to cook. I'm still learning but I'm getting better at it. I'm a newlywed and I am enjoying cooking lots of dishes for my husband. He loves being the guinea pig for testing out new meals! I also have a really fat cat named Taz. I am also a pediatric nurse.
My favorite things to cook
I like to cook a whole variety of different foods. From stir fry to lebanese food to enchiladas. My mom cooked the same things over and over again when I was growing up, and I like to be different and try new things.
My favorite family cooking traditions
We always make pecan short bread cookies for Christmas. Corn cassarole is also a hit during the holidays.
My cooking triumphs
Cheese cake, stir fry, and stuffed lebanese zucchini come to mind first. They are very yummy. I plan on adding the zucchini recipe to this site once I tweak it just a tad. :)
My cooking tragedies
One time, I accidentally put a plastic lid over my baking pan while I was baking pork chops. The plastic melted and the smell was horrible! The porkchops were ruined and I just had to throw the whole pan out. It took forever to get the smell out of the apartment, and the platic out of the stove. Never again will I do that!

Terry's Texas Pinto Beans
This was a very tasty, filling, healthy meal! I paired this up with brown rice and it was very good. Seasonings were good, did not have to add the jalepeno since we like our beans mild. Hubby added lots of cheese to his but that is because he loves cheese on everthing! Will make again.

Spiced Pumpkin Seeds
These were sooo good! We also quadupled the ingredients except for the two cups of pumpkin seeds. The flavor was very good, kept going back for more! The best pumpkin seed recipe I have found.

Angel Hair Pasta with Lemon and Chicken
Considering how easy this was to make, I am giving this recipe 5 stars. It was tasty! Both my husband and sister-in-law enjoyed it a lot. I baked my chicken breasts with garlic salt and pepper, and I also used whole wheat angel hair pasta. I served it with broiled tomatoes and garlic bread. Next time I think I will add some sun dried tomatoes and mushrooms, and perhaps a little bit more lemon and a splash of white wine to give it a little more flavor, but the flavor was good and light as is. Will definetely make again!
