About this Cook

I love to cook and eat food. I am a few months away from turning 30. I have a baby girl. I studied Journalism. I enjoy reading/writing reviews.(I post reviews on Yelp).

My favorite things to cook

Spaghetti, baked chicken, stuffed cabbages, lasagna, pot roast with potatoes, slow cooked beans/red beans rice. Sweets: Brownies, cakes, glazes, breads, cookies.

My cooking triumphs

Clam Chowder. 'Fudgy' chocolate cake with raspberry sauce. Tiramisu. Vegetable Lasagna.. list goes on.

My cooking tragedies

When I was 14 I attempted to make a roux. The flour was burned. The mixture came out sticky and hard. Burned flour tastes disgusting! At 15 I made beef stew, having no idea what to do I mixed a few different vegetables together in a pot of water. Then I added raw beef chunks, expecting it to cook. Thought I made a great stew. Gave our pet dog some and he threw it up. Pretty Tragic.

Sweet and Sour Turkey Patties

I made this recipe tonight for dinner. I used some of the tips from other reviews. (I made meatballs like someone suggested). I made my own changes as well: I used Jennie - O brand Italian seasoned ground turkey. I seasoned the turkey meat with parsley flakes, cracked black pepper, no salt & a pinch of red pepper flakes. For the sauce: I used apple cider vinegar (instead of white vinegar) & I used 1/2 a tbsp of light tasting extra virgin olive oil. I served it with mac n' cheese & corn. Delicious! Next time I would not grease the baking dish, Maybe make a slurry with tbsp of flour or cornstarch to thicken the sauce. Definitely use less bread crumbs. Those will be the only changes I would make. Great recipe and wonderfully creative use of ground turkey

Caramel Apple Pie II

Delicious, Delicious, Delicious!! I normally detest apple pie but after making this - I love apple pie! What I did differently: 1. Instead of using caramel candy I used Smuckers brand fat free caramel topping, I drizzled it between two layers of the apples. 2. I used store brand 'just roll out and bake' pie crusts. 3. I brushed the crust and top of pie with slightly beaten egg. 4. Completely avoided using foil and came out with a nicely golden and crispy dough. Note: I crumbled the 'taffy mixture' between layers of apples I will definitely be making more of these pies during Christmas!
