After falling in love with cooking over ten years ago, I’ve made it a goal to cook and learn about various ingredients and dishes. It’s all about learning- not about the meals being perfect. Please join me as I continue this adventure! (98% of the recipes end up being delicious- it’s worth following along!)
Even though I have made delicious broccoli soup in the past, I wanted to try adding a few different flavors to this dish. Many experiments in the kitchen don’t turn out the way you want them to, and this is a good example of that. It tasted amazing, but something about the texture was off,…
This has been my favorite meatloaf recipe ever since I was a young girl. I altered the original recipe by adding bacon and the melted cheese in the center, but if you want to keep those ingredients out, it is equally as delicious as a regular meatloaf. There are various ways you can make it,…

While I was perusing Gordon Ramsay’s Cookbook for a new recipe, I came across this one for Butter Chicken (Page 190; all…
I have found my new favorite Brunch Dish. Recently, while going through old magazine clippings of recipes, I found a recipe for Shakshuka featured in Chatelaine magazine. I had never heard of Shakshuka before! It has several ingredients I love. Eggs, tomatoes, feta cheese, onions… I knew I had to try it! When I looked…
