While I’ve been out of town, I’ve had the opportunity to cook multiple meals for the family with I’ve been staying. They’ve enjoyed all the different meals I’ve created, and keep saying that I’m spoiling them! Well, that seems to be a good sign! 🙂
I thought I’d post a couple of the recipes, and photos to go along with it, that I’ve used. Pinterest is a great place to find recipes. In fact I found a couple of the ones I’m posting here on Pinterest. (Yes, I know, that’s amazing isn’t it?! I actually made a recipe from Pinterest, instead of just pinning a bunch!)
This recipe is super easy, and really delicious! I bet you could even get your kids to eat it. 😉
These were not as crispy as I would’ve liked, but that probably could’ve been attained if I would have flipped them over one by one, as the recipe said. Even so, they were delicious!
Avocado, Corn and Tomato Salad
This was so refreshing, and amazingly delicious! (Well, maybe not that amazing, since there was corn AND avocados in it!) It would go great with anything Mexican, and especially some corn tortilla chips. Mmmm, it’s making me hungry just looking at it.
Even though I wasn’t with my Mom on Mother’s Day, I still made a cake in her honor, as well as for my Aunt, who I am currently with. The banana nut cake recipe I used turned out well, though not overly spectacular. Plenty moist and sweet, and it hit home.
Cranberry-Walnut Oatmeal Cookies
This recipe I got of the side of a Food Club® oatmeal container. It turned out really well, especially if you like cranberries, and is as easy to make as any other cookie. Delicious warm or cold, and especially yummy with a cool glass of milk! In fact, I ate two or three of these for breakfast this morning.
