So, this would be the almost 15 year old (there are 8 days left until my birthday. I refuse to say 14 at this point) who had her first experience with the new toys my mom bought today. I love to make homemade Mac & Cheese (it's way better than the box stuff) and I was kind of forced to use the new kitchen stuff today since my mom got rid of the rest of our pans. It was scary! Just kidding! My mom told me to try making my sauce in the fancy new blender. That didn't go so well... It really does have a setting for sauces believe it or not (there is nothing this blender can't do) but I ended up with froth.... Meanwhile the noodles cooked so fast! It was fantastic! I bake it before we eat it and I was so excited that I only had to dirty one pan! It was great! I will admidt my favorite thing was shredding the chesse with the new Magical Cone Of Slicing (I'm being informed it's called a salad master, but I personly like this name better). It ended up shredding the whole rest of the block which resulted in a very big bowl of shreded cheese. =) It was very entertaining and I didn't want to do my homework. So I baked the Mac & Cheese in our suprisingly normal oven (I'm taking bets on how long until we get a new fridge, oven, and microwave) and when I started to serve it, it was very watery (well more milky since there is no water in it). I figured this was because I didn't cook the sauce in a pan so none of the milk evaporated off. So now you know that my mom isn't lying about the great quality of her toys. =)
What am I doing here?
I am a stay at home mom who is very concerned with the health of my family. I am always on the look out for healthy but tasteful dishes. Last month I attended a cooking class from the Cancer Project. I loved the new ideas and have been trying to implement the things I learned in my every day cooking.
I recently purchased some nifty new items for my kitchen, and I am so excited about them I decided to blog about my experiences and experiments.
My new SaladMaster waterless cookware came with a good size cookbook and I thought it would be fun to make a goal to try everything in the cookbook (my husband won't support me in trying the seafood). This cookware is completely different from anything else I have ever used, and I want to share this expirence with everyone so they can learn from my awesome mistakes and incredible triumphs!
My wonderful husband recently gave me the greatest gift ever, a Blendtec blender. It has a counter on it and I have already used it 30 times in one week. This device nicely compliments the cookware, and I will keep everyone apprised of my adventures with it as well.
