About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake and I like to find ways to bake things that are generally cooked via other methods. I am constantly trying to find ways to make recipes healthier without sacrificing flavor. I like adding novelty to ordinary dishes for my son, who sometimes needs a gimmick to eat his food. I am just recently feeling confident enough in the kitchen to cook with meat other than ground beef, and I have fun experimenting with different flavors and accompaniments to meat.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Make-ahead French toast on Christmas morning, a huge batch of granola bars for my son once a month (they keep well all month when made with whole wheat and sealed in individual snack bags), and during the fall and winter we find ways to add pumpkin to EVERYTHING.

Quinoa and Black Beans
Amazing. I used about half the cayenne and it still had a little heat but was suitable for my son. I would use the full amount if it were just for me.

Homemade Black Bean Veggie Burgers
I used egg white and only 1/3 cup bread crumbs and these held together fine for me. Pan-fried with cooking spray over med/med-high heat for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side and got really good reviews from family.

Sweet and Spicy Green Beans
I used the real garlic chili sauce from the Asian section at the store (Huy Fong is the brand, same brand that makes Sriracha) and this dish was VERY hot and sooooo good! We loved it but it does pack a lot of heat. Yum! I think you could use this recipe with a lot of different veggies, even a mix of a few.
