Back to Cooking


It has been a long time since I've done any cooking. Between school and work and all the commutting it involved, I've hardly felt like going to the grocery store. But now school is over (woo-hoo, MBA) and we've moved to Texas. I have time to get back in the game. The Bon Appetit cookbook has called my name, especially the Black Bean Tostadas on pg 354. They were easy to make and were surprisingly filling. All the ingredients were easy to find as we have moved to Texas, a.k.a tortilla heaven. Frying them up was a snap and the whole recipe could be made in advance.

The next recipe was Baked Potato Wedges with Seasoned Salt pg 428. I replaced regular potatoes with sweet potatoes and they were excellent! I've made several other recipes, but they were not in the book as I've been tempted by my cook's illustrated and the Barefoot Contessa.

It's nice to be cooking again.

Glad to see you posting again! Where are you getting pictures of your prepared food? Are you taking them, or finding them on the internet?
