Even though I grew up in the south, I wasn’t exposed to a lot of southern food. It wasn’t until I was in my teens and early adulthood until I had peach cobbler and collard greens!

I was completely amazed on how delicious and easy Emeril’s chicken marsala recipe was. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the mushroom sauce melted flavor and was a creamy dream.
I made a few alterations and it turned out just as well.
- I used beef broth because that’s what I had on hand.
Years ago, I had one of the most delicious appetizer I’ve ever tasted. But to be fair, almost anything in a cresent roll tastes amazing! LOL! There are different variations of this including broccoli and/or bacon.
The only thing I would change is adding shredded lettuce in the middle…or perhaps a flower (ala “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”).

I’m not sure if this happens to everyone, but whenever I hear the word “quiche”, I immediately think of Rosie Perez. What? Is that weird? Hahaha!

I like most coconut-based curry dishes, but I’m still learning to appreciate the more earthier, spicier kinds. My favorite is Japanese curries because they are so silky smooth.
Lately I’ve been venturing to other food regions of the world. A co-worker introduced me to lamb korma, which is yummy Indian curry made from ginger, coconut milk, cumin and a bunch of other spices.
