I love cooking!

My name is Andrea and I am from San Pedro Sula, Honduras. I moved to the United States last summer with my husband who goes to med school in Cincinnati, Ohio. I love baking, I love cooking, I love food. I love healthy meals that taste good, because who says eating healthy has to be boring? Our kitchen always has beans, corn, chicken, fruits, and dessert! Because what is better tasting than black beans and sugar?

I started working in the kitchen when I was younger and I would spend a lot of time with my aunt. She baked back then and let me help with mixing cupcake batter. After a while, I became a Betty Crocker expert, impressing my friends and family with my baked goods, while Betty got no credit. One summer my grandma gave me a recipe for carrot bread and a honduran coffee cake called quesadilla (not like the mexican food) and I baked and sold my goods! After that summer I never put my baked goods for sale again, but I never stopped baking.

I can't quite recall when or why it happened, but cooking became on of my favorite things to do.
Food became my passion. I dream about food, I talk about food, I eat food.

I hope you all enjoy the recipes I will be sharing with you as much as I will enjoy sharing them with you.
