Hello my fellow Toros!

I am Alethia, I am a Junior my 2nd semester in the IDS: Comparative Cultures program, my goal is to complete my Bachelors degree by Summer 2019 with hopes of continuing on to graduate school for my Masters in Social Work.

My first food selfie is my dinner: Large Shrimp with Crab Stuffing, baked in Garlic Butter, and Monterey Jack Cheese, Served with Jasmine Rice this week from Bubba Gump Shrimp in Long Beach.

My favorite foods are any seafoods mostly shellfish cooked various ways except, Lobster.  I love eating whole fish, yes with the head on (lol).  I also really love Mexican food, Enchiladas and Tamales are some of my go to foods.  I also love Italian food pasta is my Kryptonite.  I cook really good Chicken and Turkey Enchiladas my specialty dish at my families request.

I love to support street vendors of course the well kept locations.

I also love comfort foods like Salmon croquettes and smothered potatoes.  I look forward to all the food selfies and presentations, I am sure there will be some recipes that I can learn from and cook new foods and up my already good cooking skills.
