RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am a vegetarian and love spicy and ethnic food. I am always searching for the perfect this or that. I'm a mad scientist in the kitchen and in real life. I am in medical school and have a one year old son and find cooking to be excellent stress relief. I want my food to be fun and beautiful and to put a smile on people's faces (mostly my husband's).
