RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a Northern transplant living in the American South. I love the weather and the people, and my city is so diverse and cultural! I am very happy here. I enjoy knitting and cooking, especially in the wintertime- it gets too hot in the summer! I'm trying to become vegetarian, possibly vegan, and this lifestyle change has given me the opportunity to experiment with a new range of foods and recipes. It's quite an adventure!
