About this Cook
I'm Cristita, I'm a SAHM to 3 kids (ages 6, 5 and 3), I've been married for 11 years and I love to cook.
My favorite things to cook
Cookies, cakes, salads and soups.
My favorite family cooking traditions
There's a Christmas consomé that my great grandmother used to make and every woman in my family has cooked it.
My cooking triumphs
A bananna bread with caramel mousse and chocolate ganache...DELICIOUS!!!
My cooking tragedies
the same cake... it takes 3 hours (at least) to get the cake ready...I had a dinner party and when it was time to get the dessert out, it melted right on my hands...a total disaster!

Cream of Mango Soup
YUM YUM YUM!!!! What a delicious soup!, very fresh and tasty, the only change I made was that I added 1 Tbsp of hot sauce in the blender, salt and a bit of ginger and I served it with a swirl of Tabasco sauce, fresh chopped strawberries 3 mint leafes and fresh pepper, so not only was delicious but looked awsome!, thanks for a great recipe!

Lemon-Butter Snow Peas
I had to do some changes; I microwaved the snow peas, and then I put the cold butter in an alluminum bowl, added the peas and so the butter melted with the warmth of the peas, added the lemon juice, pepper and salt....then I sauteed them for about 5 minutes...and the result: AWSOME!

Spinach Tortellini Soup
I made this soup yesterday, and even though I don't like to change the recipes, I followed some of the changes others did...I sauteed onions and garlics, added the chicken broth, chopped tomatoes, then the spinach (I had fresh, so I used it), boiled the tortellini separately, but I left them almost done, and when I served them, I added them to the broth to let them finish cooking in it so they could get the flavors of everything, I also added some shredded parmesan cheese, and it turned out great! Hubby and I loved it!
