About

Brenda Gantt

I am a self-taught cook. I started cooking around 18 years old. I stood in the kitchen and watched my mother, who was my biggest inspiration at the time, cook.

Lemons, limes, and oranges come together in this tart treat. This dessert will be a hit at your next summertime dinner party!
