I am The Recipe Diva! My name is Dana Rankin. I am a Christian Mother of 4 children.  Two boys ages 9 and 6 and 2 girls ages 14 and 8.  I am a bargain hunter, chef extraordinairre.  At least my children think I am an excellent cook! LOL No I can cook many different dishes and love to share great recipes and cooking tips.  I decided to create a blog listing my favorite culinary delights that have graced the Rankin household’s table.

I also would like to hear from my readers some of their favorite recipes and cooking ideas to help this blog be a help to others.  This is coming from my mouse to your house!   Since I am a Jersey Girl now living in Missouri I know how to cook many different ‘Jersey’ sandwiches and dishes specific to that area.  I know how to make an awesome cheesesteak stromboli and pizza steak with diced fried onions.  Hungry yet?

I can also bake my butt off.  Not literally but I am still trying. :0)  I have made homemade Coconut Cake and many others which will be included here.  My daughter Serenity always cooks with me.  She thinks she is another Rachael Ray! LOL  Every time I cook she is in the kitchen flipping, stirring or pouring something.  Sometimes to my horror as we attempt to ‘fix’ her cooking assistance.

I will throw in little family moments also as we share these meals and hope you enjoy stopping by The Recipe Diva’s Blog.  You will find a Diva Delicious Recipe! God Bless!
