I am a foodie. I love different flavors, so when my husband arrived to the United States, I was excited to share with him all the flavors of California. He didn't like my food at first. I tried recipe after recipe for him, and night after night the response was mediocre at best. I soon tired of cooking food that went to waste because he didn't like it. I stopped cooking and I love to cook. But cooking is no fun when there isn't any enjoyment when it is eaten. After about 3 years of marriage, he began to experiment with food. He started trying different items and became willing to eat things he had never eaten. AND, he started to like food. Yay- and with that, I started to cook again. Now, he always asks me, "When did you learn to cook?" As if this is a new thing for me. My answer- "It isn't when did I learn to cook, it is when did you learn to eat?" This blog is a collection of recipes that I have created. I make new things all the time, but I don't write anything down and then I either forget that I made it, or I forget how to make it. I don't know if anyone is out there that will read this- but if you do, I hope you enjoy trying my recipes. Buen Provecho!

Cheesy Potatoes

Potatoes (white or red, not russet)
Cream Cheese
Butter
Garlic
Onion Powder
Parsley Flakes
Paprika
Milk
Worcestershire sauce
Sharp Cheddar Cheese (grated)
Cut potatoes in slices and boil in salt water
Don't let them cook too much because you don't want them to turn into mashed potatoes. Drain the potatoes and put them back in the pot.
Melt the cream cheese and butter in sauce pan with garlic and Worcestershire sauce. Take off the heat and add seasonings. Add the cheese, stir until it all melts and pour over the potatoes. . Put the mixture in a baking dish and add additional cheese sprinkled over the top, and parmesan cheese and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
