Cook the Book: 'Eat Me: The Food and Philosophy of Kenny Shopsin'

I like to use existing recipes and change them to make them my own. For instance, I started with a basic alfredo recipe and jazzed it up. The only dish I invented from scratch was a sweet balsamic spinach bacon salad which is a meal in itself!

I like using acorn squash and apples in the fall. My favorite fall dish is meatloaf! Then I bake some acorn squash on the side and fry some apples. Yum, yum, yum!

My grandma is definitely my culinary mentor. She taught me the fundamentals and I wouldn't be the kind of cook I am today without her.

Tiramisu. I got some "to go" last night and had it for breakfast. Do I feel guilty? Yes. Will I do it again, first chance I get? Yes.

My guilty pleasure is that I can't pass up a piece of cheescake. Any kind! Plain, fancy - as long as it is cheescake...new york style, any style - love it. Thanks for this opportunity!

I am a sweet freak with very little guilt, though every now and again I get sad for no reason. The other day I ate a spoon of Duncan Hines fudge frosting right out of the container. It was all delicious and trans fatty. Does that count?
