In this video, I make slow-roasted garlic & lemon chicken using a recipe from Nigella Lawson’s cookbook titled, “Forever Summer”. I was confused by one part, but it’s really easy overall & it turned out really good anyway 🙂 Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/PDWJjsMmX2g

In this video, I make bread for the first time. Specifically, I make French Bread using Bernard Clayton’s Blue Ribbon French Bread recipe from his book, “New Complete Book of Breads”. I overcooked it just a bit, so the crust was a bit hard, but otherwise, it turned out great! Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/wAcpzwjHmYg

In this video, I make fried chicken strips using Giada De Laurentiis recipe. It turned out great & wasn’t hard at all… the clean-up after frying is always the worst part of the meal 🙂 Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/WvNGnpMAitM

In this video, I make a nice pork chop with mashed potatoes & broccoli. The actual recipe (by Tony Mantuano) called for White Corn Polenta & Broccoli Rabe, but I’m not a huge polenta fan & couldn’t find Broccoli Rabe or Rapini, so I made a couple modifications. I had one problem, but it turned out very tasty anyway. Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/y7j0zQLzl1M

In this video, I make Sauteed Chicken with Cherry Tomatoes from the Oprah Magazine Cookbook. The recipe is from Chef Nina Simonds (pg 115). Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/n7n2IG4Zy6Y

In this video, I explain how to make & then demonstrate the making of Deviled Eggs. I only had a little trouble popping a couple yolks out, but otherwise, pretty easy… Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/UblOZKT-jUU

In this video, I go over how to make rice in a saucepan, how to make rice in a rice cooker, why I like rice cookers, & finally, I demonstrate how to make rice using my little rice cooker. Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/qAbMNwyd7V0

In this video, I make a pretty simple Chicken Casserole & then add a few of my favorite variations. It turned out great 🙂 Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/IuAwILfRo6g

In this video, I TRY to make a pizza using self-rising flour, which is how you make St. Louis style pizza. I had a few problems, but got it made. I did make at least one mistake that mattered… Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/pDWZCJ2ffa4

In this video, I explain how to make the basic egg salad sandwich, then some variations, & finally, we make it with a few of the variations added in. Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/VnciVUzxqkc
