What is your signature dish?

My Grandmother's stuffed bell peppers.

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My Grandmother! From the time I was 5yo, she had me on a stool helping cook all her signature dishes. She never made anything that wasn't absolutely to die for! Today even though she is gone, I still make all those dishes plus my own!

What would you do with the $25,000?

Help pay for my mom's and my adopted daughter's medical bills. As well as get us into a better living situation.
