Cooking with my Abuelita...

"Making magic from leftovers!"

Spending summers with my grandmother entailed cooking. My Abuela was a full-time mother and home maker, which meant she had to have my abuelo's food on the table by the time he got off work!

She was known for making delicious dishes out of leftovers. The best dishes she made consisted of tortillas, enchiladas, tacos, flautas and tamales. I have truly gained inspiration to cook from my grandmother. I always wanted to follow in her footsteps in many ways, it just so happened that i developed a passion for cooking unexpectedly.

Had I not had my life slow down through the pandemic, I would've never known the joy of cooking... I feel that I can hear my grandmother and my ancestors whispering in my ear as I perfect and cook these mouth watering flavorful dishes!
