Sometimes, you must admit that you either don't like doing something or don't care enough to spend much time on it.

Do I like cooking? Not particularly. Half the time, I would make something that sounded good and was not too complicated, and at the end, I would realize I had forgotten to use an ingredient.

So why do I blog about cooking? Bottom line … I like to eat and feed family and friends.

I now know that I have a very mild form of ADHD and that it has mainly been dealt with by finding easy ways to overcome issues.

When it comes to recipes, it always takes me longer than most to finish a recipe because I have learned to read and reread the recipe before starting. I also put all the ingredients I need onto a tray, so if I'm getting to the end of the recipe and it looks like I have too many ingredients left, I can fix it before it's too late.

Easy and just a few Ingredients.

Since I don't love cooking or baking, I find easy recipes with as few ingredients as possible.

This recipe is not only easy but delicious. How easy, you ask? Well, I had my five-year-old…
