Recipe Resolution; A Culinary Adventure

Teaching myself to cook by preparing new recipes to try out on family and friends as often as possible. I am not a natural talent when it comes to cooking so this is truly a learning experience. I choose to use organic and locally grown produce as well as growing many of my own organic herbs and vegetables. Join me in my adventure as I prepare the great, the good, the mediocre, the bad and the ugly. Hopefully more of the former and less of the latter. :)

Week Eleven Wrap-Up

All in all, this was a fun and successful week of cooking. Although the preparation was extensive, I would definitely prepare the French Vegetable Soup again. This was a truly special dish that encouraged us to savor every bite. The Bacon-Wrapped Halibut was just the right amount of work and delicious to boot. This recipe made it onto my list of must-serves for future dinner parties or barbecues. The cookies were good as well but I think I will stick with the regular gluten laden cookies that I usually prepare. Here is this week's summary:
