About this Cook
I'm 42 years old married with 2 wonderful kids. Recently I left a career in retail management at the Home Depot to go back to school and become a nurse. I grew up with nothing but home cooking using only what we grew so cooking was instilled early in me.
My favorite things to cook
Anything new that I can tweek a little to make it my own. Primarily my family and I eat ethnic foods (spicy prefered)...we love to experiment!
My favorite family cooking traditions
The only real traditions we have is to sit down for dinner every night as a family. Holiday traditions change year to year because, (did I mention) we love to experiment.

Ham, Basil, and Feta Scrambled Eggs
WOW what an easy, quick and flavorful recipe. I have made this over and over. It has become a family favorite for breakfast. The only change I have made is to use three eggs, discarding 2 of the yolks so there are three egg whites and only one yolk, this brings down the fat and helps with our lower fat and carb diet. Try adding a tablespoon of chopped fresh mushrooms, perfect addition to this recipe

Jalapeno Steak
WOW, this is a fantastic recipe! I doubled the recipe becasue I had about double the steak (flat iron steak). I didn't think It was at all bland as some have stated, I also thought that the heat was not as hot as I thought it would be. My son's best friend (born in Mexico) came over when we pulled these off of the grill and stated he had just eaten so he only wanted one bite; One full steak later he asked if he could take the recipe home for his Mom. BRAVO

Perfect Baked Jerk Chicken
Great Recipe!! The only thing I am going to change is to cover the chicken while baking to keep it more moist, then uncover near the end when I turn on the broiler to crisp it up. I also added some crused red pepper for a little more heat (personal preference). Other than the fact that the chicken was a little dry it was fantastic.
