What Inspires me to Cook

From the day my mom decided she wanted to be a Vegetarian, is when I started taking cooking serious. It was either that or starve, lol not saying I'm not into the whole vegetarian idea. Needless to say it isn't for me. Over the years, I adapted into cooking like a natural, combining flavors, and the list goes on. My love for cooking continues to grow, one of the many things that inspire me is the people I meet from all over the world. What connects people is food, endless conversations can be started based on food. Relationships are ignited through food, and you get my drift. My dream use to be to one day open a Restaurant, not with all the added frustration that comes with it. After thinking long and hard, I'd be comfortable as a Private Cook and working festivals. Cooking isn't my profession, rather a hobby. My field is with computers, guess you can call me a geek and a cook lol. Please fill free to comment, and if you have some amazing recipes you'd like for me try reach out! don't be shy. Again thanks for joining me on my food journey and I hope you enjoy some if not all of what you see ~Chef Meeka~

Sweet Chili Meatballs

This meal I actually had fun preparing. Not saying I don't with most my dishes, but this particular is different cause the meatball 50 ways I'm not familiar with. I'm use to the traditional Meatbals and Marinara. Anyway, I went out of my element and will be doing so again lol! I've noticed when I step out of my element I create master pieces. 
When you think of Sweet Chili, what comes to mind?  I'm sure it's not Meatballs. After you try thing recipe I believe you'll have a change of heart.
