Adventures in Cooking

Let me preface this by saying, I have never loved cooking. Since getting married, I cook regularly and enjoy making food that David likes to eat. I do the bare minimum, not ever really taking a lot of effort to make anything. As long as David liked the food, that was all that really mattered. Ever since just before the beginning of the new year, I've been trying to eat healthier and trying some new things in the kitchen. I've been surprised at how much I'm actually enjoying preparing food, and so far, I haven't made anything that didn't taste at least pretty good. I've recently started taking photos of my dishes to document my newest endeavor.

Healing Stew- second stew I've made, better than the first and first time ever using my crock pot *gasp*

Wheat Berry and Bean Salad- second salad I've made along with second homemade dressing

Delicious Chili- I made pretty good chili before, but this stuff is even better, IMO...second time using my crock pot (boy have I been missing out)

Frosty Chocolate Oatmeal cookies- they may not look that great, but they taste amazing and are perfect for satisfying chocolate cravings! (and they're only about 90 calories to boot!)
