Just so you know, I do eyeball everything, and taste very often when cooking. I also didn’t write these recipes down until a week after making the dish with some of them, so when following my recipes make sure you’re tasting the whole time. I like to use my nose and mouth when cooking. I have a very good sense of smell, so my theory is "if it doesn’t smell good, it’s not going to taste good!"

*If you try any of my recipes, please let me know, I’d love to know what you thought of them.*
