Cooking & Recipes - June 2007

I just made fresh basil/spinach/garlic scape pesto. (I didn't have enough of any of them to make just one kind).
It came out to about a cup of pesto. I froze half of it and I'm keeping the other half for dinner this week.
How much should I mix in with a pound of pasta, pound of chicken, and some veggies?

For the past year or so, I have been having to babysit my brother and cook for him, almost everyday. (I'm 15, by the way..) I almost always make something in the microwave, and a few times I make pasta and sauce, or ham and cheese omellites.
My mom teases me about my cooking skills, because almost everything I cook burns, has to much water in it, needs sugar, needs salt, or all of the above. I can't even make a simple Jello, because I somehow put to much water in it. I have tried to make steak, but then I forgot about it, and it burned into a crisp.

So, what is an easy meal, for either lunch or dinner, that I can make with ease?
Oh, and it can't include mushrooms, olives, or anything spicy.


Thanks in advance!

You bring water to a boil and then put the corn in for about 4-5 minutes right? Is there something else to it?

I would like to know if there is any shaak you can make of using ARAVI PAAN (saliya paan). Not the bhajia using gram floor or any other floor, but want to know if any body has tried making subji (green shaak) using these leaves. Please, let me know. Not the turia patra shaak, also.
Any bawarchi(cook) here, if you have made it let me know,
thanks.
