Welcome to our cookbook.

We hope no one is offended by the title of our family cookbook. It comes from an incident that took place in our home. As moms, we all know how hard it is to come up with what to cook for dinner each night. After complaining to the family that it wasn’t fair that I had to cook and decide what to eat, I came home to a list written by one of our sons that was entitled “Meals That Don’t Suck”. He had included on that list all the meals that I made that he liked. Since then, whenever I make a meal that the family likes, they all ask me to be sure to add it to the list of “Meals That Don’t Suck”.

These are all family tested recipes. They are written in my “cooking shorthand” so if you don’t understand my instructions, improvise!
