Who or what inspires you to cook?

My family and friends inspire me. When I know people are coming, whether they are invited to dine or not, I cook and make sure no one leaves my house hungry. Cooking is a labor of love and I live by that.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

I enjoy making shrimp and grits. It is a friends and family favorite and I make it with Gouda cheese grits and shrimp in a creamy creole sauce. It’s sinfully rich and you can taste the love in every bite.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would buy a food truck. I love to travel and I can share a taste of the south everywhere I go.
