Nicole McLaughlin on the Piggly Wiggly, "allrecipes," and cooking on a budget

Too much fun in this interview with Nicole McLaughlin, culinary producer for "allrecipes," known as the "home for the home cook." Nicole talks about growing up in an Italian family (and yes, Trish asks about those Sunday suppers), the family butcher who worked at the Piggly Wiggly, and how very important food was growing up. Nicole knew she wanted to do something in the culinary world and she says it was pure luck (unlucky for someone else) in how she ended up in front of the camera for "allrecipes." She shares her secrets for cooking on a budget - in fact, she says she's "mastered" it, so maybe take some notes! This lover of libations and master of the "perfect bite" will certainly leave you hungry for more.
