So you like to cook? Do you ever buy at Trader Joe's?
Yep, I started learning to cook last year and now I feel more comfortable with more complicated recipes. When I lived near a trader Joe's, I used to go there all the time! It was great, they sell really good products. 
Do you ever use pre diced items? Or an instant pot or dutch oven?
Sometimes, when it's convenient, but I found that I love chopping stuff up with a knife. It helps relieve some stress. I just got an Instant Pot as a gift, so I can't wait to try it out!
There are so many great recipes with the Instant Pot! Though it feels a bit like cheating I will say.
I've heard it's really convenient, which is always good when I'm in a hurry to do things. My favorite thing to cook is pasta, and one of the first things I learned to cook was carbonara. 
Do you keep it simple? Eggs, noodles cheese and pork?
Exactly that! Just eggs, parmesan cheese, pasta, bacon, and pepper. It's so good, but probably really bad for my health.
Eat it with salad! Help out a little.
I guess it will make me feel a little healthier! I do like eating my salads with lots of cheese though.
