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.

Border Scramble : page 275

We love these. A tortilla filled with ground beef, onions, salsa, potatoes, tomatoes, spices, cheese and sour cream. I've made them many times and will make them again and again.

Chicken and Biscuit Patchwork Dinner : page 166

Kinda like a chicken pot pie. Calls for canned biscuits for the topping. Quick and easy weeknight meal. Lots of tasty veggies.

Impossible Runzas : page 190

I had never heard of a runza before much less eaten one. These are pretty good though. Easy to make for any day of the week.

This one is similar to a shepherds pie. It was good but not fantastic.

Boston Baked Corn : page 92

This one was made in a slow cooker. We didn't like the taste at all. I won't be making it again.
