About this Cook
My mom is a wonderful cook but i was never all that interested in it growing up. After moving out on my own, i chose not to cook for just myself. Now i have a wonderful boyfriend who is admittedly far more proficient than me but is helping me learn. I'm really excited about trying new things and impressing people with what i can make/learn to make in the future! =)
My favorite things to cook
-falafel -platanos -chocolate pistachio cake -anything in a crock pot
My favorite family cooking traditions
Helping my mom make holiday cookies!
My cooking triumphs
Making slow cooker chili [ad-libing a bit on spices] and it turning out really really good!
My cooking tragedies
At least a quarter of what i've cooked!

Curried Honey Mustard Chicken
This came out really wonderful. We ended up broiling the chicken for about 3 minutes on each side [after the initial 20 minutes] and it gave it a nice crispiness. I really liked that the flavor wasn't too overpowering but then again we only marinated the chicken for about an hour. Will definitely make this again.

Pork Chops and Kraut
This turned out delicious. I was out of caraway seeds [which i know would've made it stellar] but followed the recipe pretty closely, except that i drained half of the liquid before adding half of the flour and half the sour cream. I think if i would've used the correct amounts it may have ended up a bit too soupy...though i'm sure it still would've tasted great. Nice recipe...will make it again!

Zucchini Alfredo
very simple and yummy base recipe but i do agree with a few others that something is lacking. i followed the recipe and added Italian seasoning, about a half cup of shredded mozzarella and some fresh ground black pepper. also, even though i only made 3/4 of the bag of pasta i still needed to add about a quarter more cream cheese and a quarter more milk.
