About this Cook
I am a married lawyer living in East Tennessee. I work all day and cook at night and on the weekends so the Husband has lunch through the week.
My favorite things to cook
Eggplant Spaghetti, Portobello Parmesan, anything sweet for my sweets
My favorite family cooking traditions
Let the kids do the cooking! That was how I learned to cook. If you wanted something other than hot dogs and mac 'n' cheese, you made it yourself. I was doing stir fries in the 4th grade.
My cooking triumphs
Cinnamon Rolls from scratch that were the best that I have ever had!
My cooking tragedies
Too many to mention. The first time I tried to make a Dutch Baby, the inside of the oven ended up catching on fire!

Quick and Easy Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Casserole
This was really tasty and really cheesy. I ended up with way too many tortillas left over, so I am not sure what went wrong. I think next time I will do a couple of layers of tortillas for each tortilla layer. I also followed other reviewers and mixed the chicken with the sour cream mixture before spreading it. I also added additional spices like chili powder and onion powder to the mixture before spreading it. It added another layer of flavor, but I am sure the dish would have been fine without it.

Brown Sugar Meatloaf
While I really liked the taste, I had some problems with this meatloaf and all the leaking of meat juices. Next time I will follow other reviews and put the glaze on top after it has cooked most of the way and I have had the opportunity to drain the meat juices off.

Grandmother's Buttermilk Cornbread
I grew up with my mom making sweet cornbread out of a box. This is so much better and so easy to make. I do bake it in a cast iron skillet (because that is the only way to make cornbread). I also use a milk/vinegar substitute if I don't have buttermilk on hand. Usually I just put a tablespoon of white vinegar in the bottom of a liquid measure cup and then fill it the rest of the way with the milk. Delicious. I have already made it half a dozen times in 2 months.
