Oh, yes....I LOVE to cook...and eat...my creations.
Tonight, I made an all-from-scratch tuna rice casserole. NO cream of mushroom soup from a can here, thank you. It wasn’t fancy, but it turned out very good. The kids loved it. I do my best to cook from scratch, except when I’m really tired or in a big hurry.
The most exotic(but surprisingly easy) thing I’ve ever made was Pineapple Foster. It’s like Bananas Foster, but I sauteed strips of fresh-cut pineapple instead of bananas in the same brown sugar-cinnamon sauce as you would a Bananas Foster. I substituted pineapple juice for banana liqueur. I still flambe’d the sauce in the end with dark rum. It was served over home-made coconut ice cream.
I do like to experiment in the kitchen, just to try things out. MOST of the time, they work.
Good for you....and an adventurous cook, too.
Tuna rice casserole sounds yummy.
