What’s Cooking?

What’s your favorite recipe?

I am not a cook. Professional or home cook. I didn’t even want to learn how. I remember being a young girl telling my mom that I was not going to be a housewife, so I did not need to learn housewife duties ๐Ÿ™„. What a childish statement. The reality is everyone has to eat, and it is best and cheaper to be the one cooking the food. As a home cook, you can season the food just the way you like, add or delete ingredients, and make as little or as much as you want. Even if cooking isn’t your thing, I recommend you learn how to make a few dishes. At this age, I won’t starve, but don’t expect too much from me. I can’t cook for an event or family gathering, but I can bring a dish that I have mastered.

My favorite recipe is white chicken chili. I love this dish because I believe it is one you can eat year-round, and it is delicious. You can make it simple with a can of cannellini beans, cut up chicken breast, and the white chicken chili sauce pack. You can substitute the chicken for turkey burger. Or forgo the meat altogether and just use beans. There are so many different ways to personalize this chili. Add cheese or vegetables. I like to make mine with cannellini and great northern beans, turkey burger, corn,ย  petite diced tomatoes, and at least two sauce packets. I like it to have a little kick. Then, I eat the chili with tortilla chips. So yummy ๐Ÿ˜‹. I make this chili in every season, but of course, more in the colder months.

I have found another recipe I like, taco cupcakes. I don’t feel like I have perfected it yet, but I will continue to work on it and the different variations I want to try and make. What is your favorite recipe? Is it one you found or one that was passed down through the family? I do have a rule not to cook anything with more than 5 ingredients. Do you have any cooking rules? Let me know what you are cooking up. Stay well and whole. Much Love ๐Ÿงก ๐Ÿ’š

P.S. I finished my first 1000 piece puzzle of this year. I’m in a puzzle swap with my friend and her dad ๐Ÿ˜†. He has the good quality puzzles, not the cheap dollar store ones.
