"This is an easy dinner! The flavors blend nicely. While this is a veggie recipe, 2 c. diced, cooked chicken could easily be added."

I am a teacher by day and a cook whenever I get the chance! I thoroughly enjoy cooking and trying new recipes. I have only a few things people expect to see at certain times of the year. Most of my friends know that if they want to have something again they had better request it because I am probably planning to try something new! Desserts are what I enjoy cooking the most! I find that baking is relaxing for me as well as therapeutic at times! A long weekend or a strong source of frustration undoubtedly means two or three goodies showing up in the teacher’s lounge! Breads are my new fascination. I have a stand mixer and put it to work at least once a month with a new bread recipe.
