Haha they were fun to make! We cracked a bunch of eggs, removed the shells, cut them in half, removed the yolk, cleaned out all the yolk, and then made the inside with the egg yolks mixed with mayonnaise, lemon juice, and Tabasco sauce! Then we pipped the mixture into the eggs!

Then today in my cooking class we all pan-fried chicken, made pan gravy, sauted spinach, and made mashed potatoes. My chicken was spiced with just salt and pepper, but my spinach and potatoes were amazing! I am my moms daughter, and I added dill to both of them, and it was so tasty! I had garlic, onion powder, and dill in the mashed potatoes, and with the spinach I added sauted onions and carrots with a salt and pepper mix and a chili powder and dill mix! Sooo good!

Cooking and Baking class! : )

Here's a recap on my cooking class on Wednesday and my baking class on Thursday! ^_^

So on cooking class this week we did a section on chickens! We all had to make sauce, and then partway cook our chicken over the broiler and then finish it in the oven! The chef really liked mine, he said I had a good balance of colors. : )

We also made side salads with our own salad dressings. Mine was made with apple cider vinegar and olive oil!

My friend K is so cute! : )
