RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Hi I'm Megan I live in Pennsylvania. I'm a pretty young cook. I started in 7th grade and I have gotten so much better in the last few years. I work on weekends as a hostess and bussing tables. I love learning languages, especially italian, arabic, hindi, and spanish. I have so many cookbooks it's hard to choose. I love my Ultimate Muffin Cookbook as well as my King Arthur Wholegrain baking cookbook. I have a bunch of Indian, british, italian, chinese, japanese, middle eastern cookbooks as well. They are all cool. I love different cultures and I love middle eastern dance. Those are my true passions. But I am involved in a community service club at my school and I love helping others.
