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!

Spicy Peanut Noodles

This is a recipe I got from my mom that I have made a million times and they are always a crowd pleaser.  For years at my old work, whenever we had a potluck, the sign would ALWAYS be posted in the back room with the #1 entry written by whoever made the sign-up sheet reading: Kelly, peanut noodles.  What more can a girl ask for???

1 pkg cooked spaghetti, warm or cool but drained of all water
Sauce
Chopped peanuts, cilantro, and green onion (about 1/3 cup each)
Red pepper flakes and grilled chicken optional

Sauce:
4 tbsp Sesame oil
4 tbsp honey
3 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

In a small saucepan, bring all sauce ingredients to a boil.  *Be careful NOT to burn the pepper flakes or you'll have to start all over!  The honey and salt and oil just need to dissolve together, then remove from heat and pour over noodles.  Add toppings.
