Welcome to I Love to Cook

Cooking is something I have always enjoyed. I learned to cook at the apron strings of my mother and grandmother. The experience of cooking brings me both pleasure and peace of mind.

Herbed Baked Eggs from Cooking in College (http://thecollegiatecook.blogspot.com/)

I found this great recipe on a blog (http://thecollegiatecook.blogspot.com/)  this morning before I started breakfast.  I have to give full credit to Meghan Smith, who adapted the recipe from Ina Garten.  I had to try it.  Of course I took a few liberties with the recipe and since there was cheese I had to use alot more than was called for.  I hope everyone enjoys this and gives a visit to Meghan.
