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.

Taste of the South
(February, 2012)

I really enjoyed this one. It was fun to make and so pretty when it came out of the oven. It was a bit crispy but also flaky. Loved the taste of the ham, cheese and chives.

Easy for a work night too. I just browned up the ham and set it aside. Put the butter in the same cast iron skillet then into the preheated oven while I zized up the batter in the food processor, removed the pan from the oven and poured in the batter.

I chopped up the chives and shredded the cheese while it was baking. When done I sprinkled the ham, cheese and chives on top and cut into servings. Delicious.
