My Mission Yo

I had a mission, once upon a time...It was to attempt all of Pioneer Woman's recipes. I can't. I don't know how she cooks so much. She may be Superwoman?

Whatever I do cook and share with you all that is an original Pioneer Woman recipe I will rate on a scale of 1-5 for "tastiness" and 1-5 for difficulty.

Taste:1-Being "Yuck" & 5- Being "oh my I think I'm in Heaven this is so good"

Difficulty: 1-Being "Luke could cook this." & 5-Being "Uh, may swear off cooking altogether because this was so hard."

Anything else that I cook and share, I will just give a basic review for. I have two small children who I am with ALL DAY LONG, so my reviews are realistic and useful.

Pasta Carbonara

I made this Pasta Carbonara of Pioneer Woman's on Monday night.  The only difference I made was that I used wheat noodles.  I know it may seem ridiculous when I'm using a pound of bacon to use wheat noodles, but when I'm at the grocery store, my eyes don't even see the white flour noodles for some reason.  It's like they aren't even there.  Anyway, it was extremely rich in bacon grease flavor...beware.  I would get all pumped up, take about five bites and have to back off for about thirty minutes.  I had about five bites Tuesday for lunch and put Tony Chachere's on it, oh my, it was divine. 

Taste- 3.5 (just because the bacon flavor could be overwhelming for some)
Difficulty- 3 (just because I'm a fan of one pot dishes)
