Easy, simple, quick to cook and tasty. the only change I made was to not to add the salt as I felt the capers were salty enough, even after rinsing. Thank you AZPARZYCH, made for Please Review My Recipe.

Peoria, 41

I am a stay at home mom to two wonderful boys; Joshua (8years), Kaiden (5 years), and baby GIRL, Madalynn (19 months)!  I also have two fur babies (cats); Kobee, AJ; we had to put our youngest cat Sly down Jan 2014. :(. I am also married to my best friend, Jeff and have been since April 2005.  I love cooking, hate cleaning and will do whatever I can to get out of it!  I love grilling and baking.  I do most of the grilling at my house, and bake for almost a week straight at Christmas time!  I can make or will attempt just about anything, though I rarely make brownies, my husband's are the best!  Homemade breads are not my friend, so I am always working on bread baking. As for recipe ideas (besides zaar) Cooking Light Cookbooks are my favorites.  I love to make new meals and try new things; it is hard though because my husband is picky when it comes to veggies (and hates seafood); If it were up to him we would have baked-bread crumb chicken and white rice at least one meal a day!  Over the past couple years with zaar, I have found tons of new recipes my family normally wouldn’t eat but have been happily surprised with new favorites. I love to join in all of the tag games; I haven't been as present as I would like, but as soon as my Jeff is back from working in Ohio I will be back in full tagging mode! Cooking is my hobby and passion, I always like to host the family get togethers and volunteer for the potluck dishes.  Most of all though are my kids; being home all day with them is fun and challenging, but I wouldn’t trade it for any salary!!
