Spotlight On Michelle Keith!

Mexican Pie

Wow!!

That is all I can say about all the amazing recipes I am seeing on the site since yesterday! This group loves a good party and good food. You are all my type of people! As if that is not enough I am shocked at all the creative entries.

When I ran across Michelle Keith and her Mexican pie entry I have to say...I stopped in my tracks. She had me at "crushed buttery crackers and butter" for her crust! Then the inside of her "pie" is all kinds of yummy mexi-love topped with cheese. Hello Meow!! This mama wants her some Mexican Pie!

As if that was not enough, I got to reading Ms. Michelle's profile and saw that she is a Florida girl and loves to blog. So, I had to check out her beautiful blog at www.thevillagecook.com. Holy mangoes she can take a picture! Since I just bought myself a "big girl" camera as my treat for winning, I covet those who take rockin' pictures. And this girl can ROCK a camera. Way to go, Michelle! I tip my spatula to you and say "welcome to the club" and keep those great recipes coming! I see that you're a newbie here, and I'm so thrilled to welcome you to our big Philly family!

Remember everyone, the most exciting part about this phase in our competition is that we are building a cookbook, so be creative! Really dig deep and create a recipe reminiscent of a favorite place or vacation - then experiment! Send in a new exciting recipe that has your special touch. Your mission is to take your guests to that special faraway place via an appetizer, and remember, your Philly Godmother is always here giving you love, spices, good vibes, and a sprinkling of fairy dust over each and every International Appetizer!

Rock on!

Congratulations Michelle!

Your Mexican Pie looks scrumptious, and I'd like a slice now please (lol).

I went to your website, and was taken so far back to my childhood it was unbelievable. The freshness in your food on the pictures show absolute perfection.  I was born and raised in South Florida but now live in Central Florida so I don't get the pleasure of picking delicious fruit off of trees. It's so amazing how your website captures so much of the beauty of Florida food.

Keep up the good work!!!

Congratulation Michelle!!! Your dish looks great! Lots of luck to ya!!

Way to go Michelle! I'm learning a lot looking at your pictures- thanks for sharing your time and talent with us :)
