I love to cook for familiy and friends, trying new recipes on them. I have just found out my cholesterol is high and I have high blood pressure so I am searching for new good recipes that will fit into my diet and help me loose weight. I love mexican dishes my Southwest Chicken cassarole is one of my favorites. Chicken is another favorite of mine. My mom always had open house for family when I was little. She came from a family of 2 sisters and 4 brothers so our house was always full at the holidays. One of my favorite things she made and I make them for my family now is Sand Tart cookies. My kids won't even take the recipe and try making these themselves they say they wouldn't be them same.
