About this Cook
I'm always looking for new recipes to try. My husband and friends are great guinea pigs!
My favorite things to cook

My favorite family cooking traditions
My mom didn't cook a whole lot growing up, but I do remember the homemade spaghetti sauce recipe that she got from my grandma...we'd always have tons leftover!
My cooking triumphs
I'm always happy when I try something new and it tastes good!
My cooking tragedies
I'm a horrible baker...I tried to make homemade muffins once and they came out like rubber. :(

Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls
My husband and I loved these spring rolls...they tasted just like the one's at our favorite Vietnamese restaurant! Unfortunately I didn't have mint or Thai basil. And instead of the sauce I put together a peanut sauce/Siracha mix which was excellent! Thanks for sharing!

Chicken Souvlaki Gyro Style
This hit the spot! I love Greek food, but don't always want to have to go out to get it. For the marinade I used the balsamic vinegar instead of the vinaigrette because that's what I had on hand, added minced garlic and I loved it! I also used Greek yogurt over the plain. I made a quick lemon orzo soup to go with it and it was a perfect, quick meal. Thanks for sharing!

Chicken Tortellini Soup With Zucchini and Tomatoes
This was great! I was in a hurry so used low sodium chicken broth. I also added onion, garlic, squash and celery and left the chicken out...the tortellini was filling enough! Added parmesan to the bowl...yummy! Thanks for sharing!
