About this Cook
I am more than full time working mother of one. I enjoy cooking very much but have very little time to do so. Even so I instist on sit down family meals every night so quick and easy are great!!!
My favorite things to cook
There isn't anything that I don't like to cook, I tend to try a little bit of everything! Now if my family likes to eat it, that is the challenge.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Starting to share my knowledge with my young daughter and hoping she will grow up enjoying from scratch cooking.
My cooking triumphs
We had a german exchange student live with us for a while and she had the idea before coming here that all americans ate nothing but fast food. At the end of the stay she wanted every recipe I made and told me I had totally changed her mind as she had no fast food with us.
My cooking tragedies
The only one I can remember is substituting salt for sugar in a breakfast dish that I made before my daughter could even talk. It was violently spit out!!!!!

Ruby Red Layered Salad
This was awesome! The only change I made was to use frozen strawberries that I chopped up instead of raspberries because thats all I had on hand, and pineapple tidbits instead of crushed. I liked that I just made it in a glass bowl and let people spoon some out vs. a mold cause I can never get a jello mold to come out nice!

Ham Tetrazzini
I thought this was pretty good. I gave it 5 stars because of how easy it was and its a good one for putting your own twists on. Great for a busy weeknight. I did change some things based on what others said and it was actually great with the changes. I douubled the recipee and used 4 cloves of fresh garlic and 8 ounces fresh mushrooms which I sauted with the onions. I used a full 2 cups of shereded mozerella and provelone cheese. (It was what I had on hand) I omited the pimento and instead added a 16oz bag of chopped mixed veggies. Instead of water I used chicken broth and added just a tad more than the recipee called for. I also used the whole 16oz box of spaghetti. I used ham, but i bet chicken or turkey would be good too. Thanks for such a great recipee.

Dill Dip
This was great!!! I used only 1/2 tsp salt as other reviewers suggested, I thought that was a perfect amount. I made the full recipe and I won't do that again. I made it as a dip for veggies for a huge party and not even half went! A full recipe is way to much 1/2 is the way to go. Plus make it the night before, easier that way and it tastes lots better!
