Ok, I'll admit it. I'm not a great cook. I enjoy cooking and Kelly will have to admit, I have tried hard!
When we got married, I tried to fit my wifely roll and do a lot of cooking. Lots of burning!
When we had kason I tried again- with the help of Pinterest and a crock pot. But now that I am an allergy mom, there is no choice. I am officially a cook, 7 days a week, so I have no choice but to try to be good at it. I still rely on Pinterest and a crock pot!
I put together my 5 freezer meals for the week- it took 2 hours and a HUGE mess!
I took this picture because I was really proud that I hunkered down and got this done- dinner is somewhat prepared for the rest of the week. No stress, no trouble.
I also made a delicious brownie recipe for kason as part of his 'cooked milk' daily snack!
So yummy and yes! Kason loved it!
I used a new egg substitute- home made edition.
1 tsp baking powder + 1.5 tbsp water + 1.5 tbsp oil = 1 egg
At first I was nervous- it was like that volcano science experiment! Once I added the water it fizzed up! But once added to the batter, it settled and created some delicious brownies with a purpose!
So, I'm not going to be so bold to say that I have become a good cook, but when the situation creates itself- you have to jump at the opportunity to try. And hopefully this situation of having to always to cook from scratch can create more than just an(almost) good cook- family dinners, conversation, learning how to use utensils, smiles and laughter.
Ya- I can deal with that :)
