About this Cook
I am an RN originally from Montreal, Qubec and moved to Florida in 1993 on a one-year working visa. I met my husband within three days of my move and have been here ever since.
My favorite things to cook
Since I'm a workaholic I don't have time to whip-up elaborate meals during the week. I like quick, easy healthy meals.
My cooking tragedies
I once made Chili Con Carne and accidently added ground gloves instead of Chili powder. Yuck!

Baked Cream of Coconut
Outstanding! Don’t underestimate the plain look of this most delicious dessert with a crisp top layer and a flan-like inside. It was very easy and quick to make.

Apricot Lentil Soup
Wow, both hearty with a hint of sweetness – just delicious and healthy. I wouldn’t change a thing. To peel the tomatoes easier, I cut a shallow X in the bottom end of each tomato (opposite side of core) and dropped them in a pan of boiling water for 15 seconds and then transferred the tomatoes into a bowl of ice water. I then immediately peeled the tomatoes with a paring knife and the skin just came right off.

Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup
This was very delicious and simple to make. I gave it 4 stars only because I did not think it has an authentic "Mexican" taste. Perhaps adding a little cilantro near the end of cooking time would make it more authentic tasting. Next time I will do this. Thanks for the recipie!
