About me: I collect cookbooks and love to cook and try new recipes. I tested recipes for Leite's Culinaria for almost eight years. I learned to cook from many good southern cooks including my Mom, Dad, several Aunts and my Grandmothers. My children and husband also like to cook and try new foods and recipes. My son still lives with us but our daughter is married. She often visits to cook with me. We are adventuresome eaters willing to try new things.

My daughter made these and we thought they were delicious. She used siracha sauce instead of the sambal oelek and baby bella mushrooms instead of the white button ones. These are a bit spicy but oh so good. She made the asian salad on page 78 to go with.

This was a delightful salad and went well with the Asian Chicken burgers from page 76 My daughter made this for us and we enjoyed it very much. Nice mixture of flavors. She couldn't find jicama in our local store so used more cucumber and carrot. We would have liked a bit more jalapeno and next time will add a little more.
