Yummy chicken pot pie
About this Cook
I am a New Jersey native and graduate of the George Washington University in Washington, DC. I recently moved to South New Jersey to complete my education. I am a first year medical student and being that this is very time consuming, cooking time is at a premium! Still, I find that it is a stress reliever and I love to enjoy home cooked meals as often as I can. I love inventing new recipes and enjoy finding ways to make anything delicious! I get a lot of inspiration from good restaurant meals as well as my favorite chefs. I love this website and everything about it!
My favorite things to cook
Anything that people enjoy eating! I cook chicken most often I guess. I love baking pies, too.
My favorite family cooking traditions
perogies, and beet soup for Christmas Eve dinner. It's not very traditional, but it's what I've eaten since I was a child!
My cooking triumphs
My first chicken pot pie.
My cooking tragedies
When I was in high school I tried to make some sort of stuffed chicken breasts for my mom. Not only were they awful and dry but I got a second degree burn trying to take them out of the oven!

Perfect Berry Shortcakes
So easy and so delicious. I love the technique of grating butter, it makes a perfect biscuit. I used the leftover biscuits for breakfast the next morning, toasted with some jam or fresh fruit.

Strawberry Cheesecake
Rave reviews from boyfriend, friends, etc. this is delicious and pretty easy to make. I am pretty sure I added more strawberry to swirl into the cake than it called for, and I used fresh strawberries and added a little bit of sugar. The fresh strawberry taste was to die for.

Pear and Blue Cheese Salad
This is so good. So simple and will impress everyone you serve it to. I omit the onions because of personal taste. The candied pecans are my favorite part of the salad.
