About this Cook
I live with my boyfriend and we have his 4 kids’ part time. Raised in western Canada by my European parents (mom from the Ukraine, dad from Hungary) I have a broad pallet. I love to cook, and I love to eat. However, living with the 4 children has made my cooking life an absolute nightmare. They are all very fussy eaters. It has become a struggle to get them to eat anything other than bacon and eggs, cereal or pancakes for breakfast, and for lunch or dinner - pizza, Kraft dinner, hamburgers, or hot dogs. They all hate vegetables and can’t even enjoy the simplest of childhood meals such as spaghetti with meat sauce. I am almost ready to throw in the towel and stop cooking for them all together. If anyone has any suggestions, please help.

Janet's Rich Banana Bread
OMG! This is the BEST banana bread recipe. I've been searching for the last 15 years, tried many recipies and finally have found a recipe that I will make forever. This one is actually the best. I mashed the bananas instead of chopping them, but other than that I followed it to the letter. Can't be beat. End of story.

Cranberry Cheesecake
This is a great recipe. Its important to note that the straining of the cranberry mixture is an important step, unless of course you like seeds in your gel? I did as the other gals mentioned and baked it at 200degrees for 75 minutes, and it was a smooth flawless top. Great idea. And I added a tsp. of vanilla and a dash of cinnamon to the cranberries. Turned out so yummy. I will make this again for sure.

Parmesan Chicken
I loved this recipe. Everyone I have made it for has loved it. I did make some adjustments though; I do everything as planned, then I broil the chicken with a thick slab of mozzerlla cheese on top, just until the mozza is golden brown. Then I remove it from the oven, dust with real grated parmasian, and serve over a bed of pasta with a nice tomatoe sauce. Just like at a restaurant.
