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.

Blazing Glory Chili : page 84

This chili has so much flavor. It's a great meal in a bowl. I like that it has macaroni and red kidney beans in ti. Very hearty and filling.

My family loved this one. I used peach jello instead of the lemon called for, gave it an even more peachy flavor. This one is great for diabetics, weight watchers and those trying to eat healthier but you'd never know from the taste.
