APPETIZER: Hot Chicken Cheese Dip
Nominated by Kristin Emerson
"One of the things that makes my best friend Gina Sides an awesome cook is that she cooks when many others wouldn't. Gina's husband travels a lot, meaning that she's left with two kids to take care of by herself most of the time. Most moms I know in similar situations choose not to cook much when the husband is not home. Not Gina, though. She cooks excellent meals and has taught her young children to enjoy a wide variety of foods.
"For at least a year, the only way I could get my 6-year-old son to try new foods was to tell him 'Ms. Gina made it!' "
