Good cooks abound here I am sure

It is more than probable that we have more than a few good cooks here at CC. I simply love to cook. It is true...I am a foodie at heart. I love good food and drink and I love to be hands on in the kitchen.

I also love to share/find healthy low cal recipes and ideas that taste good.

Can't wait to meet more CC Chefs to share with.

hmmmm, how do I find the recipes now?

Viki, I am a foodie too! I don't always cook, but do so a couple times a week and love to find new recipes.

There's zillions of great ideas on the recipe browser in addition to several groups and forums that exchange. At the food home page (browsing bar at the top) there's a terrific recipe analyzer. You can work with that until you get your recipe the way you want it and then save it for everyone to share! Anyone can find it with the name of the dish or through copy and pasted links in posts. I've posted two links on journal entries, but over time journals get buried.

Your recipes save to a file called My Recipes which is also under food and you can save other people's recipes in a tag file for recipes. Love it. Fortunately you can edit yours as I have had to do several times when I realized that the ingredient connection for nutrition was way wrong! I did not exactly edit well. LOL

jannid and others--

Maybe you can help me.  I entered several recipes into the calorie count database.  I edited one of them a few times, and I need to work on another, and I can't find an 'edit' button. 

I'm kinda new here, and I might have just forgotten where it is, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.  Did they take out that function?

In the meantime, I started putting my recipes on my blog where I can also post a picture.  I'm more of an old-timey comfort food cook rather than a new age foodie, but I hope there's some good stuff there.  Not all of it is 'low-cal'; some of it is 'lower-cal'--lighter versions of a heavier dish.

I was kinda amazed my poultry dressing recipe got an A-.  LOL.
