Updated: Mar 23, 2023

Presenting . . . Stella’s Creole Meatloaf! This photo shows how I might have looked on PIX11 NYC on Mardi Gras Day 2021, but there were technical difficulties with the audio for the Zoom. This was before I started doing the in-studio appearances I'm doing now. That’s showbiz, folks! Don’t miss my super-satisfying recipe below. “STELLLAAAAAAAA!!!”


From "The Infinite Feast: How to Host the Ones You Love—Recipes from the Big Easy . . . and Beyond" by Brian Theis, 2020 Click here for more on my best-selling cookbook.
