Lived in Missouri for 15+ years. Married 5 years, one daughter. Enjoy doing volunteer work with International students at the local college campus. I learn a lot about foods from other countries this way as well as make friends for life all over the world.
My favorite things to cook
I prefer to let the oven, crockpot,grill or bread machine do the "work" so my family and I can enjoy the results without being worn out:-).

Sweet Potato Corn Bread
This was a great way to use leftover sweet potatoes. We love both sweet potatoes and cornbread and this is a match made in heaven.We also used 3 cups of sweet potatoes.We made mini muffins as well as regular size(we got exactly 2 pans of each out of this recipe). For an added touch, my daughter(3)pushed a mini marshmallow into each mini muffin before baking and they toasted up beautifully. I baked our mini's for 8 minutes and the regular ones 16 min with great results. I think a touch of brown sugar or honey would be good because they are a little less sweet than I prefer my cornbread muffins, but we still really enjoyed these.I added some flaxseed meal and reduced the oil and they turned out great. This is an awesome recipe to go wild with - next time I might even add some leftover crushed pineapple. Definitely a keeper. Thanks, Lori
