RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I just love cooking! The best part of cooking is the eating you do after you've cooked!!! Having lived in 3 continents ( Europe, Asia and Australia)has given me the opportunity to get to know many different flavours and dishes and I definitely have my favourites! I work full-time as a retail-manager and have two kids and a dear husband. I find it a challenge to be creative with the limited time I have and that's why I'm now a member of Recipezaar!
