Years working in the restaurant industry led to a co-ownership of a successful Sacramento-based catering company. Extensive travel in the Americas and abroad continues to expand Deb's culinary horizons and reminds her to try new things. Her favorite food is green chili-anything, and her happiest time is that spent in the kitchen with family and close friends. (c) Copyright Pearson Education. All rights reserved.
