i am the biggest goof in the kitchen but one of my resolutions is to
try cooking more often!  it doesn't help that all my kitchen
appliances and tools resemble those of a college student.. ie: broken
knives alladin style; no food processor so i'm forced to use my "magic
bullet" to chop; and pots that are the first to be volunteered for
church retreats cuz they're already in bad shape... BUT tokhui has
inspired me to create a log of successful recipes that i've tried:
sueann's test kitchen!  so for every recipe i like, it's getting
laminated and placed lovingly into my new recipe binder.  uh, so
far i've got ONE:

last night i tried hongkykong's
mac & cheese suggestion.. turned out PERFECT.  even with the
magic bulleted bread crumbs...  definately add the ham, makes a
huge difference.

next on my list?  kenny's chili con carne!

any other tried and true recipes out there that i can test out in my ghetto kitchen?  do tell!
the fewer the ingredients, the better.  and definately no complicated tools, i probably won't have it...
