Receive Text UpdatesMy father inspires me to cook, after a tragic burn accident when I was 2yo my dad has always been my hero. I watched him from the corner of the kitchen since I was 5 and watched him make meals out of nothing-effortlessly. I do the same. It just comes natural, cooking keeps me going and eager to learn more.
What's your all time favorite dish to make?My all time favorite dish to make would have to be loaded baked potatoes. Although I’m a southern girly at heart I love me a good potato, especially with my special sauces. You can make loaded potatos so many different ways, with so many different toppings. SO MANY FLAVORS.
What would you do with the $25,000?Since getting out of a 6 year abusive relationship, although I work everyday it’s been difficult for me to find a permanent home for myself and my two sons 9 and 6. My dream has always been to start a non profit food truck to feed the homeless and buy a life time home for my family. My only dreams in life are to help others and make sure my children have the life I never had. I have been through a-lot and I never want them to feel any of the pain that I had to endure.
