What is your signature dish?

The dish my family requests the most is my slow cooked beef pot roast with oven roasted root vegetables, and pan gravy. The key to this dish is my homemade caramelized onion and red wine soup that brings BIG flavor and tenderness to the beef.

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My mama & grandma's taught me the true purpse of food is in feeding your family & your soul. ❤️ Julia Child, Martha Stewart, and Rachel Ray also walked me through different culinary journeys. Rachel helped me find simple ways to feed my family good food, on a budget, and quick to the table. Julia provided insight to a joyful cooking experience. And Martha helped me find skills to expand my cooking horizons and challenged me to cook dishes I thought were for restaurant experiences only.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would use $25k to expand our farm operations to continue reducing food insecurity in our community.
