RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a mom of 2 (a 3 year old daughter and a 6 year old son). I've been married for almost 8 years now. I love to cook, but as I am a vegetarian (have been for 10 years now!) and my husband and kids are not, I am always looking for a happy medium at dinner time, which is what peaked my interest in cooking.
