Three of my Favorite things to do: cook, eat, and look for new recipes to try! I grew up with a mother that was a great cook and have loved carrying that tradition over into my own home. This is a compilation of recipes that I've tried and liked, where I found them, how I made them, and what I think about them. Cooking is, for me, an expression of love. Enjoy!

Asparagus Tuna Casserole

 I was waiting for the dentist, flipping through a magazine when I came across this recipe.
My mom always made tuna casserole on the nights that we were staying home with a babysitter.  If I ever saw one on the counter my first question was, "Where are YOU going???" I'm guessing it was her go-to dish because it was about 5 staple ingredients in one dish.  
I was excited to find a healthier yet almost equally as simple recipe.
A few things I would change: I liked the asparagus but I think I prefer peas.  They add a needed sweetness.  I left out the potatoes and added more pasta and nixed the olives.  I was worried the sauce would be too bland but it ended up being perfect.  And a few handfuls of crushed up Jalapeno Kettle Chips never hurt anyone either :)
