My name is Holly. I'm a student and I work full time. I am an artist and I see my cooking as an extention of that.
My favorite things to cook
I love cooking vegetarian food. I am inspired a lot by Mediterranian style cooking as well as Asian. Traditional American food is not really my thing. I come from a long line of Southern home cookers, so I like to take their recipes and put new, healthy spins on them.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My family is really into Southern home-style cooking. It involves lots of grease, meat, and potatoes. I have gravitated over time to a more non-traditional way of food preparation, but I also know how to to stick to my roots.
My cooking triumphs
Cheesecake without a crack in the center...now to learn how to make a yummy vegan cheesecake!
My cooking tragedies
bread has been very unsuccessful thus far...
