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.

Daughter and I loved this one. I chose the kale option for the greens since they are her favorite. Simple, fast and flavorful from the garlic paste.
