I am not a very experienced person when it comes to cooking. I have gotten better and I do know how to make basic meals. Pasta is definitely my forte but I would love to branch out and find more foods that are easy and that are enjoyable to cook. I think that since I’ve lived at home my whole life, I mostly relied on my mom and sometimes my dad for cooking meals. I never really was forced to learn to cook as people would do it for me because once I studied abroad I was on my own with a lot of possibilities. I had a whole kitchen with supplies and a grocery store a two minute walk away and being there four months I had to figure it out. Now that I’ve been home I’ve had to step it up because everyone has different schedules and I’ve been more busy with a new job. One day when I had work off I made a quesadilla with vegetarian chipotle black bean crumbles. Although I am not fully vegetarian I like to do vegetarian options about two times a week just because I like it and to also help the planet little by little. I just heated up the black bean crumble in a skillet and then used a pan to heat up my tortilla and melt the cheese before I put the beans and crumble on. I put the other tortilla on top and flipped it a few times until it was all melted and crispy. This was another easy meal for me and was very tasty! I cut it up into a few pieces and scooped sour cream and salsa to dip, quesadillas are definitely one of my favorites to cook. I now have a better relatioship with cooking on my own!
