About this Cook
I grew up in a very small town with seven brothers and sisters. Some of our favorite activities were baking and cooking for our family.
My favorite things to cook
I love cooking with wine, and new spices!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My grandmother is revered as the cook in our family. She is infamous for her homemade bread and cookies. As kids whenever we would visit she would always have fress molassas cookies for us, and something with onions and garlic was always cooking in the kitchen. My grandmother is of portuguese decent, and it shows up in her cooking!
My cooking triumphs
I think my best dish is Chicken with Prosciutto and Swiss. I am also very good at chowders and soups.
My cooking tragedies
I constantly burn the bread!

Lentil Chili
I've never cooked anything with lentils before. So I was pleasantly suprised how delicious this turned out. Very low fat (5pts per serving) and freezes great! Will make again and again. The only alteration I made was using "italian style" ground turkey.

Baked Honey Mustard Chicken
Quick and easy dish! I didn't have any dried basil, but we didn't miss it.

Quick and Easy Alfredo Sauce
This was so easy and delicious! Alfredo sauce is my favorite - and this recipe is almost as good as resturant quality. * I also used lowfat cream cheese, and low fat parm. I don't think it makes a difference in the taste.
