Here is a recipe for a home made pico de gallo, that I call fire and ice salsa

2 to 3 medium fresh heirloom white tomatoes (1 to 1 1/2 pounds), stems removed (though any tomato will work)
1/2 medium red onion
1 jalapeño pepper, stems, ribs, and seeds removed (less or more to taste)
Juice of 1 lime
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch dried oregano (crumble in your fingers before adding), or more to taste
1 pinch ground cumin, or more to taste

Roughly chop the tomatoes, chili peppers, and onions. Be careful while handling the chili peppers. Use a plastic baggie or disposable gloves to handle them, or wash your hands thoroughly with soap and hot water after handling and avoid touching your eyes for several hours.

Set aside some of the seeds from the peppers. If the salsa isn't hot enough, you can add a few for more heat.

Place all of the ingredients in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade. Pulse only a few times, just enough to finely dice the ingredients and not enough to purée. If you don't have a food processor, you can finely dice by hand.

Place in a serving bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. If the chilis make the salsa too hot, add some more chopped tomato. If it's not hot enough, carefully add a few of the seeds from the chilis, or add a little more ground cumin.

If you like, let the salsa sit for an hour (room temperature or chilled) for the flavors to combine. Don't ever think the reason I am peaceful is because I do not know how to be violent.

I really like dinners I can cook in 20 minutes on days I have work, this is one of my favourites. The website I got it from called it Korean Beef Bowl.

¼ cup brown sugar, packed
¼ cup reduced sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
½ teaspoon crushed red-pepper flakes, or more to taste
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound ground beef
2 green onions, thinly sliced
¼ teaspoon sesame seeds

In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, red pepper flakes and ginger.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add ground beef and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the beef as it cooks; drain excess fat.
Stir in soy sauce mixture and green onions until well combined, allowing to simmer until heated through, about 2 minutes.
Serve immediately, garnished with green onion and sesame seeds, if desired.


Not included in that recipe but what I really like is adding fresh cabbage and shredded carrot on top.

Creme bulee (mostly because I LOVE breaking the sugar top!) And, I know this is more baking, but baking is far more fun for me than cooking lol.

1 qt heavy whipping cream
1 vanilla bean, split and scrapped (I'd suggest an Amazon bundle and freezing/thawing it, otherwise this is expensive)
1 cup vanilla sugar (you use the vanilla bean above when you are done with this recipeand put it in idk 2 cups of sugar for like 3 days)
6 large egg yolks (the whites are great for meringues and angel food cake!)
2 qts hot water

Oven to 325
Cook cream, vanilla bean and pulp on stove top and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally
Remove from heat and cover. Let sit for 15 mins
While the above is cooling, remove vanilla bean. Wash and dry fully before placing in sugar for your next batch of vanilla sugar.
Also while the above is cooling, whisk 1/2 c sugar & egg yolks until well blended.
Also, start boiling water.
Add cream a little at a time (the goal is to not cook the yolks yet)
Whisk until fully blended
Pour into ramekins - no more than an inch high per ramekin.
Put ramekins in cake pan. Fill the cake pan with hot water until it comes 1/2 way up the sides of the ramekins.
Bake until creme brulee is served, but still trembling in the center. (About 40-45 mins)
Remove, let cool, cover are refrigerate at least 1 hour (up to 3 days). Also freezes well, just pull out of freezer a day or so before serving.
Once at an appropriate temperature, cover with vanilla sugar. Maybe up to a quarter inch.
At this point, you can use the torch if you want to or you can use the broil section in your oven. If you use the broil section, keep it in the oven as closes to the heat source as possible for 2-4 minutes. It is super easy to burn, but the goal is to caramelize the top without cooking the flan or whatever you want to call the bottom.

Then CRACK INTO THAT MOFO, because that is oh so satisfying. And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known

I made a Macaroni Cheese from scratch, (which I do from time to time). The recipe is simple, and I do deviate from it slightly.

Ingreadients

1 cup elbow macaroni
¼ cup butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
ground black pepper to taste
2 cups milk
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

Step 1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes. Drain.

Step 2
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; stir in flour, salt, and pepper until smooth, about 5 minutes. Slowly pour milk into butter-flour mixture while continuously stirring until mixture is smooth and bubbling, about 5 minutes. Add Cheddar cheese to milk mixture and stir until cheese is melted, 2 to 4 minutes.

Step 3
Fold macaroni into cheese sauce until coated.

-------------------------------------------------------

I usually use those spiral paste if I don't have macaroni elbows. Also you can top it with sliced tasty cheese or cooked bacon or tomato, or whatever you want.
