About this Cook
I come from a family of good cooks, and all my girlfriends are good cooks too. I think a good cook should be flexible and ready to try new ideas. I'm an Administrative Assitant, wife and mother of three.
My favorite things to cook
Comforting old favorites, and new and tasty dishes from all over.

Cheesy Meatball Soup
This was only okay. I used beef broth instead of water, and con queso as others suggested. I also used a dash of worchestershire as others mentioned. I added a handful of shredded cheddar to each serving to try and add the richness that I think this is missing. Even with the overall "kick" from the con queso, I found the soup to be a little bland and just okay. I flip/flop between three stars and just 2.5 stars. I probably won't make again.

Bourbon Pecan Chicken
This is only pretty good, the sauce is tasty enough, but I was disappointed in the pecan crust, just not as tasty and crunchy as I expected. I really like "Deviled Chicken Breasts", a similar recipe from this site, more than this one.
