Cakes, pasta, savory chicken/turkey/fish dishes, anything that requires pickling, and veggies veggies veggies. My favorite ingredients are cinnamon, vinegar, tomatoes, and cream cheese!
My favorite family cooking traditions
I come from a long line of German cooks...I love making anything with sausage, potatoes, and there's nothing better than something that's been pickled! My late grandmother, Marie, is my inspiration.
My cooking triumphs
My famous sweet and savory meatballs, spicy vegetarian chili, homemade white chocolate trail mix, turkey stroganoff, chicken fajitas, and peach upside down cake.
My cooking tragedies
Stuffed bell peppers...my husband hated them!
