About this Cook
I grew up in a household where I was the youngest of 7 children. My mother was a wonderful cook, and I learned most of what I know from her.
My favorite things to cook
I love to try new recipes, and tried & true family favorites! My favorite dessert to make is chocolate chip zucchini cake. For a main dish, pasta is always my favorite!
My favorite family cooking traditions
I live in Lancaster County, PA. Some of our local cooking traditions are shoo-fly pie, chicken pot pie(like Southern chicken & dumplings), brown buttered noodles, and home grown veggies.

Chunky Broccoli Cheese Soup
Fresh broccoli is cheap & plentiful this time of year, and I was looking for something easy that doesn't use FROZEN broccoli. This did it. I loooooved it! I did make it last minute, so I didn't have some of the ingredients. Here are my substitutions... 1. No cream of celery soup, so I chopped some celery (abt 1 cup) and cooked it with the onion. 2. No milk... Added 1 cup half & half and 2 cans of chicken broth and 1 can cheddar cheese soup. Only used 2 cups cheese (shredded cheddar, not processed) 3. Had frozen grilled chicken breast strips. Used them instead of the canned. 4. No mushrooms... no substitution. : ( Will definitely do this again. VERY easy! One suggestion: If you have one of those small food processors, chop the onions, celery & broccoli in the same container. Makes it very simple & fast!

Eggplant Supper Soup
A nice and DIFFERENT way to use extra eggplant. Not your usual eggplant parmesan or fried eggplant. LOVED the broth from this soup. Very soothing.

Ham 'N' Cheese Quiche
LOVE this recipe. I have 2 in my freezer right now. Nice for one of those extra busy days when I just can't get supper going fast enough! Very yummy! I want to try it with other meats as well... bulk sausage, summer veggies such as zucchini I think would be excellent as well.
