About me:
You would think that if you are born and raised in New Orleans you know how to cook. Not true in my case. My mother was a great cook and she did ALL the cooking. I could "fix" dinner and I really didn't "cook". I married a man who loves to cook and is very good at it. He actually taught me how to cook and now I love it. I love trying to find things that I cook better than Hubby and making his say..."that was really good, can you make it again"!! We have one daughter who is a sophomore in college, and she is finally wanting to learn to cook...Lord help us!

Original Homemade Italian Beef

Reviewed on Sep. 1, 2008 by AmyA26
This was absolutely delicious! I was very hesitant to use so much Italian seasoning (it came in 0.6 oz. pkgs at the grocery store so I had to add 5 to get 3 ozs), but I am so glad I did! The meat was so tender and delicious! I added my pepperoncini an hour before it was done cooking with its juice. The beef was pretty spicy, and I couldn't give it to my 2 year old, but the husband loved it. I would make this again but I wouldn't add the pepper juice!

Apple Pie by Grandma Ople

Reviewed on Jul. 28, 2008 by Lindseya117
My mother brought me back a bunch of green apples from an orchard and I decided it was time for me to make a pie. I prepared my own crust and went looking for an apple pie recipe. I followed the instructions but added a few touches. First I dashed the apples with extra cinnamon and mixed until coated. Then I added a teaspoon of vanilla and 2 tablespoons Captain's Morgan Rum to the mix. It smelled similar to my banana's foster. Then I poured 2/3 of the mixture over the apples before I did the latice crust. After I did the crust I poured the rest over it. I baked it in the oven at 350 for 55 minutes. It turned out great!! Yum!!

Cornflake Waffles with Honey Sauce

Reviewed on Jul. 6, 2008 by Lindseya117
These were very good. The whole family loved them. We made them for brinner (breakfast for dinner) and they were excellent. I did not make the sauce though. Next time I will for sure.
