Default Would this be good?

I have extract brewed with kits from a few different places before and wanted to make my own receipe. Can someone tell me if this is going to be a disaster before I even start? Here is what I chose:

1 lb Crystal Malt 60
1/2 lb Cara-pils

6 lbs Amber LME

1 oz cascade 60 min in boil
1 oz nugget 15 min

I chose those 2 hops because I am going to be growing those and wanted to see how they taste together.

Looks good to me, except I'd swap the hops additions. Nugget is great for bittering, and I like cascades for flavor. Nugget tends to be high AAU%, and is similar to chinook.

Ok thanks for the input. So put the nugget hops in for 60 min of the boil and the cascades for the last 15 min?
