I love to experiment base on what I can see in the kitchen; I walk into the kitchen blind and I come out with a plate of food. My kitchen is my laboratory and you can be my lab rat 😋😋😋. A foodie by day and A foodie by night. #Icookueat

When I added yam to carrot soup it was really tasty, so I uploaded the recipe!I added yam at the end so I could enjoy the fragrance, but you can put it in the mixer if you like. For 2 servings. Recipe by Orange Day

I get a little tired of the regular side dishes, so I like to rotate in dressing for an everyday meal. I like it especially with roast chicken or pork chops/roast. I make this frequently with my cranberry pork roast and honey glazed carrots (both recipes on my profile).

Easy Spaghetti Bolognese Sauce made with a Food Processor Easy Spaghetti Bolognese Sauce made with a Food Processor

I bought a food processor a few years ago just to make this sauce. Over time, I started making it without checking the recipe,and the portions grew to about twice the amount of this recipe.Adding vegetables in this order makes the sauce tasty.When you use spaghetti, pour pasta water into the sauce pan and the sauce will coat the spaghetti well.
