Breakfast Tacos at Rosie’s Tamale House in Bee Cave, Texas
I live here and, believe me, breakfast tacos are definitely allowed all the time. They are more prevalent here than McDonald's breakfast, for sure.
Cook the Book: 'Top Chef'
I make a really wicked muffin with lots of fruits and nuts. I guess that's what I'd try.
Cook the Book: 'The Food You Crave'
A big salad with dried fruits, lots of chunky vegetables, nuts, feta...oh yeah, healthy...?
Cook the Book: 'How to Cook Everything Vegetarian' Book Giveaway
My personal variation on Chana Masala wherein I add a bit more nutmeg and some cinnamon as well as ground dried apicots. It makes it a bit sweet as well as spicy.
Cook the Book: 'The Breakaway Cook'
Paneer. I have always loved eating Indian food at restaurants but recently ventured into a local Indian market and discovered you can buy paneer already made! Paneer is Indian cheese that is more like a really firm tofu and is pretty much a vegetarian staple for Indian food. It has really emboldened me...:)
Cook the Book: 'The Lee Bros. Southern Cookbook'
Chicken Fried Steak with cream gravy!
Cook the Book: 'Baking, From My Home to Yours'
I've recently tried an apple-oatmeal-walnut cookie with icing that is very pleasing.

Rachael Ray is my mentor. She has several T.V. shows and a magazine and she does it all in 30 minutes. Thanks for the contest. I would love to win that book.

My mentors are all of those wonderful people who frequent farmers markets and cook simple, fresh, wonderful food for their families. The people in Italy have the right idea, they cook what is best, what is fresh and then share and enjoy their wonderful cuisine with those they love. Truly the way to live and enjoy life!
