Look what I Did!

Yes! "I" did that! And it is all from scratch! Can you believe it?

 I made homemade mashed potatoes, homemade stuffing, homemade macaroni, and homemade gravy along with the chicken.

This is the first time I have ever made stuffing or gravy!

My husband only likes the Stove Top stuffing, but it has MSG in it and I can't eat it, so I tried to find a recipe that would taste like it and I did!

He loved it! I loved it too! And I found a recipe that told me how to make the gravy from the chicken drippings too!

This is the second time I made the macaroni. It is so good. it tastes like Furr's!

And the chicken was actually moist this time. I found a recipe from Cooks magazine that told me how to keep it moist.

I cooked the potatoes in my pressure cooker.

My husband bought me a pressure cooker a few weeks ago and I have been loving it. It works so well, and really cuts down on the prep and cooking time.

I am proud of myself. It was all actually really good.

I'll keep you updated on all of the new things I learn to cook, and I'll get you some of these recipes soon!
