RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>I am a mother of 4, I love to cook and my family loves to help. I look for easier recipes that taste like I've been laboring in the kitchen for hours. I have plenty of those to share as well. My family rates our meals each night as to whether they are a keeper or not. We are always trying new recipes, but love the ones we rate 5 stars and incorporate one of those in every week! I've recently been changing my eating habits to incorporate a healthier lifestyle. Simple changes have helped me to lost 15 pounds in 5 weeks and I'm still working hard! To check my weight loss status, go to: http://kass-britt.spaces.live.com/ <br />I'll be adding healthy recipes I have found or created that don't lack taste and flavor. I'll also be looking for some recipes like that here, so if you have some great ones, please let me know so my family can try! <br />Thanks for your support and I hope you find my recipes to your liking!</p>
