meals I've been cooking

So the past few weeks I've been cooking more. They've turned out pretty delicious. Tuesday we made spinach pasta bake with a cream sauce. It turned out really well, considering I have followed a recipe and just went with what sounded good.

Thursday we made some chocolate chip cookies. They were pretty alright. Some a little crispy and the lack of brown sugar made them more like sugar cookies with chocolate chips.

Saturday morning was chocolate chip and banana pancakes. Pretty good. I'm not a huge pancake person but these topped with some peanut butter, hit the b-fast spot.

Saturday dinner is my most proud dish yet. I made Eggplant Parmesan. It was so delish. I also added spinach and zucchini. I fried the eggplant in a rosemary, oregano, garlic and onion mix. Then topped it all with the spinach and parm cheese. YUM. It is definitely the dish I'm most proud of thus far. We'll see what the next week brings. YUM-O!
