I really enjoy cooking, and dislike processed (and most restaurant) food. I make my own:
bread (always honey whole wheat w/dill & caraway seeds)
salsa (different almost every time)
vanilla bean ice cream (tested many recipes, made my own)
chocolate sauce (gotta have Valrhona powder and Godiva liqueur + agave)
yogurt (plain whole milk sweetened with fresh kiwi)
tapenade (it's an olive, pimento and caper party)
pizza, pasta, and apple pie (it's all in the dough)
"real fruit" smoothies (no ice or powder)
salad dressings (mostly vineagrettes these days)
hummous, babaganoush, falafel
I always try to have on hand: minced garlic, roasted garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, kalamata olives, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, a wide variety of cheeses, Italian seasoning, Dijon mustard, soda water, EVOO, salt and pepper grinders, red pepper flakes, bay leaves, real butter, and almond butter. And pine nuts and coconut flakes for toasting.
That's off the top of my head (I'm always out of something).
I roast my own organic coffee beans as well, and make a custom blend of yerba mate loose tea.
I like to roast birds, grill and smoke meats, roast potatoes, make chili, cornbread, polenta, and saute pasta dishes; my standard is soft tacos with homemade beans, leftover meat, freshly made guacamole, my salsa du jour and as much fresh cilantro as I can get my hands on. I've been meaning to develop my own tortillas but haven't gotten around to it yet, and just like homemade bagels maybe I never will. I would like to experiment with making some cheese one of these days.
I wrecked mom's kitchen when I was 11 making a cheese souffle that actually turned out well, and haven't made one since, need to do that again.
I also like to do creative things to make vegetables enticing, and enjoy making soups and stews. The only desserts I mess with regularly is the ice cream. I used to make chocolate macaroons, not sure why I stopped. I'll occasionally bake up some cookies, brownies, the apple pie, or my special cashew cardamon coffee cake as the occasion calls for it, which is not often. I used to make my own biscotti, but the big containers of them at Costco are cheap and really good, mine was inconsistent and kind of a pain to make.
I live alone so I am usually cooking with a few days worth of meals in mind, and am constantly re-combining different leftovers into new things. Bon apetite!
