Okay, so I decided to try out some easy recipes at home. Nothing too fancy, just simple stuff that even I could handle. I started by making a list of what I wanted to cook.
Attempt 1: Scrambled Eggs
First up, scrambled eggs. I mean, how hard could it be, right? I grabbed some eggs, cracked them into a bowl, and whisked them up. I put some butter in a pan, waited until it was melted, and poured the eggs in. I kept stirring them around until they looked cooked. They turned out okay, a bit runny, but edible. I guess I need more practice.
Attempt 2: Slow Cooker Pork Loin
Next, I tried a slow cooker pork loin. I got a pork loin, some veggies, and spices. I put everything in the slow cooker. I put it on low heat and left it to cook for a few hours. The smell was amazing! When it was done, the pork was so tender and juicy. It was actually really good! I felt like a real cook.
Attempt 3: Simple Vegetable Soup
Then, I thought I’d try making a simple vegetable soup. I chopped up some carrots, potatoes, and onions, and tossed them into a big pot with some broth. I let it simmer for a while until the veggies were soft. I added some salt and pepper to taste. It was warm, comforting, and surprisingly tasty. I think I’m getting the hang of this cooking thing.
Attempt 4: Roasted Chicken
Finally, I decided to tackle a roasted chicken. I got a whole chicken, rubbed it with some olive oil, salt, pepper, and herbs, and put it in the oven. I roasted it for about an hour and a half. I checked it regularly. The skin turned out crispy, and the meat was moist and flavorful. It felt like a big accomplishment!
- Scrambled Eggs: A bit runny but edible.

All in all, it was a fun experience. I learned a lot, and I even surprised myself with how well some of the dishes turned out. I’m definitely going to try more easy recipes in the future. It’s not as hard as I thought, and it’s pretty rewarding to eat something you made yourself.
