What is your signature dish?

I don’t think I have a true signature dish because I like to change it but if I had to pick one I think it would be kielbasa with potatoes and onions.

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My parents! I grew up with parents who cooked and baked amazing food! Oh and my grandma who hosted Christmas dinner and would spend days making cookies and candy and decedent foods!

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I win I would take my family on vacation and pay off a credit card or two.
