i love to cook
Me too, I am a chef and most people dont realize cooking depends greatly on the skill and type of training a cook has. You cant just throw something in the oven and have it come out tasting good. 
whats your favorite dish to make?
Baked sweet potatoes is my favorite, They are a starchy and sweet-tasting, They are a great side to any meal. 
that sounds tasty.. whats an easy meal for a beginner to make ?
A good beginner dish would be meatloafs or even a pizza, Anything with simple ingredients is a good way to start. 
that sounds like something i could make
Indeed, Cooking is all about the art, technology, science and craft of preparing delicious food for enjoyment. And seeing the smile on anothers face.
