About me: I've been cooking and baking since I was a child and collecting cookbooks almost that long. Years ago, I lost my entire collection in a flood and I've been slowly building it back up. I cook for my husband and three sons who are not very adventurous eaters. We're on the go a lot with sports and school schedules. I love to bake and my boys and their friends appreciate all manner of baked goods.

Favorite cookbook: King Arthur Flour Cookie Companion

Ginger Pork Meatballs with Cilantro and Fish Sauce from Dinner: Changing the Game

These meatballs and the dipping sauce were to die for delicious. Although there was a lot of chopping the recipe was easy to follow. Everyone loved it and we will definitely make this again. read more >

Rachael Ray 365: No Repeats--A Year of Deliciously Different Dinners (A 30-Minute Meal Cookbook)

By Rachael Ray
Clarkson Potter - 2005

This is the recipe that taught me to cook mac and cheese. It's very easy and my family loves it.

I leave out the broccoli, add breadcrumbs and put it in a 350 oven for about 20 minutes.

My 18 yo son asked if he could cook dinner and asked for suggestions. As he's not much of a cook, I pulled some easy cookbooks off the shelf. He chose this recipe despite it containing ingredients he had never eaten before.

Although he needed a little help - basically convincing him to get ingredients together before he started cooking - he was able to pull of this super simple recipe in a short amount of time.

The result was a tasty noodle bowl we all enjoyed and a proud son.

My 18 year old son picked out this recipe to cook. It's basically ground chicken with spices rolled up in phyllo dough and baked.

We found using the phyllo dough very fiddly and, in the end, it didn't hold up very well to the filling. More layers of phyllo were definitely required. The taste was quite good but too much bother.

We made it again a couple of weeks later using a can of Pillsbury pizza dough. We divided the dough in half and divided the mixture between them. This made for a super simple meal which we all enjoyed even more.

It's certainly not fine dining but it was surprisingly tasty and we all enjoyed it.
