RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in Texas and started cooking in 2005 when I was diagnosed with coronary heart failure. I have to eat a very low sodium and low fat diet so commercially prepared foods are mostly off limits. I found that I like to cook though, it makes a nice change from my job of designing multi-million dollar computer systems. Cooking has become my main hobby along with gardening fresh herbs and veggies.
