RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I just graduated college and will soon be working for a textbook publisher as a sales rep in the southeast. I love to experiment with food and make things I eat in restaurants with a healthy makeover. However, I am from Mississippi and my boyfriend loves his southern food, so I always revert to simple favorites like green beans, potatoes, and corn bread. I usually seek my inspiration from Cooking Light magazine and the Food Network.
