About this Cook
I love to bake! It's a very enjoyable and relaxing hobby to get into the kitchen and produce something fresh out of the oven. Breads, cookies, pies, cakes, it's all a lot of fun. I'm not so good at savory cooking, but I'm learning as I go. I like a lot of flavor in my cooking, plenty of spice and garlic for the savory, and not too much sugar in the sweet.

Sausage and Zucchini Lasagna
I used 1/2 hot and 1/2 mild sausage, added one more zucchini and a chopped onion. I skipped the egg white in the cheese mixture. I really liked the added flavor/texture from the zucchini!

Loved these! Not sweet, which is our preference.

Kheer (Rice Pudding)
Wonderful! My preschooler and I made this to celebrate Diwali. I didn't have any white rice on hand, so I used our usual long grain brown rice and doubled the cooking time (just put the rice in with the milks & sugar and let it all heat up/boil together). I can also see doubling the cardamom, but that's just personal preference.
