About me:
I'm a stay at home mother to two beautiful girls ages 4 and 2. Before having my children, I was an elementary school teacher. My mother didn't cook at all when I was a kid. She just wasn't interested, so I grew up on frozen and packaged foods. I didn't even attempt to cook until my senior year of college. I was forced to try because I moved to a townhouse with a kitchen and I was off the cafeteria meal plan. At that time, even pasta and jarred sauce was a big challenge for me! According to my husband, I've come a long way (and he's tasted all my progress through the years), but I know that I still have a lot to learn. It's very important to me that my girls learn to cook at a very early age so that they don't find themselves in the same situation that I was. I love finding new recipes on this website that the girls and I can make together. Even my 2 year old gets in on the act. We make a big mess, but most of what we make is at least edible, and we have a lot of fun!

Cheesy Sour Cream and Salsa Dip

Reviewed on Dec. 18, 2009 by FLORAB

This is one great starter dip. I rate this high because as written it was a great dip. I also added my own touches after tasting by adding garlic and cilantro and a little salt. So great as written but as others have done, just added my own touches. MMMMMMM good!

Spinach and Black Bean Pasta

Reviewed on Nov. 16, 2009 by CasiK

I have used this recipe a few times. It's very good and healthful (minus the parmesan). I would recomend this to anyone. Oh, and it's high in fiber. What more could you ask for?

Pesto Lasagna

Reviewed on Nov. 16, 2009 by CasiK

I do not eat meat and I was looking for a recipe for meat-less lasagna. This recipe was delicious and fairly easy to make. I substitued the fresh spinach for the frozen, and ended up coming up a little short. The only thing I would change about this recipe is the alfredo sauce. I'm sure I will make this again, but I will use a sauce with more zest.
