I am a transplant from New Orleans who is always looking for great recipes that are well seasoned, easy, and quick. My neighbors and friends here in the Tri-State area simply adore my cooking. I love to cook traditional New Orleans dishes. Large meals during the holiday seasons. Feeding anyone who happens by any day of the week. Cooking my first holiday meal and baking my first cake from scratch. Trying to cook spaghetti sauce from a jar...I am used cooking it from scratch. My family said that it was not good at all! ...They hurt my feelings!:)
