Biz joined The Chopping Block as a Class Assistant in August 2016. Her passion for cooking didn’t really begin until her daughter turned 8, and she realized she’d never convince her daughter to eat veggies if she didn’t learn to cook and eat them herself! Fast forward and her daughter is now 24. She recently ditched her desk job of 20+ years to follow her true passion which is sharing her love of food and cooking. While not at work, she recipe develops, enters recipe contests and maintains a food blog at http://mybizzykitchen.com.

Let me start out by saying that I LOVE to meal plan. Like a lot. My late husband never understood it. We’d be sipping coffee on Sunday mornings and I’d ask “How about pork chops for Thursday night?” ...
I think it was in the early 80’s that I was introduced to GORP. One of my teammates had it on a bus to a field hockey game. It had peanuts, raisins and M&M’s and it was delicious. It was deemed ...
