Receive Text UpdatesMy signature dish is pernil, roasted pork, and arroz with gandules, rice with pigeon peas. I also make a mean Mac and cheese and deviled eggs.
Who is your culinary inspiration?My grandmother Carmen. Since I was 7, I was always in the kitchen with her asking lots of questions about her cooking. Also, taste testing.
What would you do with the $25,000?I really need a car, my poor husband drives me everywhere. It's exhausting for him. With one vehicle it can be challenging when it comes to appointments, work and sport events for our youngest child.
