I am not a great cook. I do not deviate from a recipe
(extra pinch of spice... no way!), I feel that Martha Stewart, Julia
Childs and the contributing chefs at Southern Living knew what they were doing
when they wrote it. I also don’t like complicated recipes, especially
ones which have ingredients that I need to google in the grocery store to even
know what they are (please tell me I am not the only one who does this)! My cooking bible is a 5 Ingredient Cookbook my
grandmother bought me in college when she realized I was not blessed with her
Italian genes. And even with my easy to follow recipes and to-the-letter
cooking philosophy, I still make a mess most nights in the kitchen.
When I first started cooking for Brandon I would always keep
pizza coupons on the fridge. I would make his plate, ask him what he
thought and then ask if I needed to call for pizza back-up! That sweet
man has always been willing to sacrifice his test buds to my attempts at new
recipes, and only has asked for the sauce and dough reinforcements once.
My “skills” in the kitchen have been getting better (slowly
but surely) and I really knocked it out of the park last week with recipes I
found on Pinterest. And when I find a recipe I can follow (correctly) and
it tastes good I need to shout it from the roof tops!
So if you are looking for some new
dinner go-tos try these:
So who’s coming over for dinner?!
Love both these meals!
