I'd like to say my cooking level is expert but I'll just say above intermediate, lol. I became interested in cooking at age 12 as I did not like Mom's bland cooking, LOL. Of course I made some bad meals while learning! Even now in my 50's, I enjoy trying different recipes but usually change a bit to suit to my tastes or alter a cook method as to what worked for me. I like experimenting with new recipes/ideas and reading other's reviews. I find great tips/tricks and input quite often. Since I'm measurement challanged, I find it impossible to submit a recipe of my own or I would! My reviews are solely as an idea for others as to what worked better for me or due to what I had on hand; not to disrespect anyones original recipes. I'm reviewing the submitted recipe with my own spin and if something doesn't turn out cuz I messed with it, I'm not about to leave a bad review. Felt that needed saying on my part :) Most anything spicy with lots of flavor. Things I can change up to suit my own tastes. Hispanic, Comfort, Italian, Asian inspired, Greek and Southern or Cajun mostly. Italian Beef Sandwiches (apparently it's a Chicago/Midwest thing). My recipe has been requested by many friends after they've eaten them. Hard to do when you add a little this, a little that, so on and so forth during the cooking process. I've been told I should start a food truck to sell them. Of course along with fries and such. Maybe someday I'll give it a go if I could find the $$$. We're going back years here. One time, Spaghetti sauce - used dried tarragon by accident (thought it was oregano) and all I can say is ICK, licorice taste in spaghetti sauce was AWFUL. Unfortunately I had added to the meatballs too! That meal definately got tossed out. Another time, a meatloaf recipe called for some applesauce in ingredients. Don't do it! Had a good laugh about that one. Sounded good on paper but horrible on the plate, LOL.
