Really amazing stuff! The biggest mental thing for me is stay proud of yourself, so many people never put in the effort so even if you make something that doesn't come out quite right you're still kicking ass. One of my super easy go-to meals is cherry tomato pasta. Cook some cherry tomatoes and minced garlic in a good glug of olive oil until some of the tomatoes begin to burst. Meanwhile, boil some pasta. Throw the pasta in the cherry tomato pan, finish with salt and pepper, basil and Parm if you feel fancy, and viola! In terms of learning about cooking, I cannot recommend J. Kenji Lopez-Alt on YouTube enough. I love his personality, and he really explains why he does what he does when he makes food. It fits my style of learning, and allows me to learn the fundamentals that I can translate to whatever I want to cook. He has a great blend of easy recipes and large projects too if you ever start feeling ambitious in the kitchen.
