About this Cook
After spending 15 years as a paralegal, I got burned out and went to culinary school since I had always been a bit of a foodie. I'm a kitchen manager for a high school now - much better hours than a law office - and do some catering on the side.
My favorite things to cook
Asian - escpecially Thai food, and anything on the grill.

Roquefort Grapes
I have made a variation of this for catered events. The changes are as follows: 4oz cream cheese and 6 oz gorgonzola cheese (adds a bit more "punch"). Cream the cheeses and they will stick to the grapes. Then I use toasted, chopped pistachios. An elegant hit every time.

Matzo Brei
I made this like a french toast and added vanilla and cinnamon and served with syrup. I am not Jewish, but this is pure comfort food for my husband. He liked the additions so much that he invited his parents up for breakfast. Even my mother-in-law asked what I did differently and she makes it for her husband this way. Also, I made this dish for my daughter's 5th grade class for their heritage day and only one small portion remained!

Leftover Chicken Croquettes
This was so good that my VERY PICKY kids actually ate it! I found that it had even more flavor the next day for lunch. I used equal amounts of light and dark meat turkey (from thanksgiving) and the thanksgiving gravy. Great way to use up leftovers. I will definitely make this again.
