RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I'm a small town girl currently living in Southern Manitoba. I love to cook and owe it all to my mother. She immigrated to Canada from Vietnam, and I just love her traditional dishes. My father is French Canadian, and my DH is Ukrainian/Spanish, so needless to say, I get to cook a lot of different culinary dishes. My favorites, however, are Vietnamese, Thai, Mexican, Italian and Greek.
