My Son is Cooking with Me!

This is what the Cook at Home Challenge is all about, 2BFitN10! “I’m really getting hooked on being in the kitchen and trying new foods.”

Darn it, I forgot to get pictures! But I still think it’s pretty neat nonetheless. My nearly 16 year old soon helped me make dinner. I was getting the ingredients ready when he asked if he could help. Knock me over with a feather! Thankfully, it was a simple recipe, Thai Beef with Chilies and Basil over Coconut Rice. It was my first time making this dish and it was delicious.

Last night’s dinner with simple. I made sub sandwiches on fresh french bread with pepper jack cheese drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I served with it a simple Antipasti Chopped Salad, substituting turkey pepperoni and low fat mozzarella cheese instead. It struck me when the meal was over that it felt good eating so much fresh food. I’m really getting hooked on being in the kitchen and trying new foods!
