About this Cook
Love to try new recipes and tweak others for my picky family. Some of my experiments don't always turn out, but I have fun trying them anyway.
My favorite things to cook
I'm best at desserts, but I also like to make pad thai and love to try new ways to cook chicken.
My favorite family cooking traditions
We don't have many traditions per se but I'm glad I was brought up to cook things from scratch. I'll occasionally doctor up convenience items for the sake of time, but I like that I can do things the homemade way.

No Bake Cookies V
I made these EXACTLY as written and they got hard in the saucepan before I could even get them on the wax paper. I tried to pile it all into a 9x13 and smash them down while they were still hot in hopes of cutting them into bars, but that didn't work either. Don't know how everyone else had such good luck.

Pretty Chicken Marinade
My picky husband and hard-to-please autistic 5-year-old asked for seconds, so this will definitely be a keeper for us. I made it exactly as written except I left out the liquid smoke because I don't like that taste. Also juiced a lemon instead of using store bought lemon juice. Looks as good as it tastes.

Cheeseburger Egg Rolls
This was a hit at my house, something rare with a 3 and 5 year old. I did change the filling a bit. I made half of it the way it was written and for the other half I used the meat, cooked and crumbled bacon, onion, bbq sauce and cheddar cheese. One pound of meat definitely is not enough to use all of the egg roll wrappers, but it easily fed my family. Like someone else suggested, I thought it wasn't enough oil, but I just let them cook on one side and then flipped them. It was less than 4-5 minutes on each side, but just watch them and you'll be fine. I'm definitely making these again.
