Local Jersey resident Dina Deleasa from DishItGirl.com and E!’s Married to Jonas was just announced by Hallmark Channel as their winner for their Home Cook Contest. Dina was selected out of 100’s of contestants to participate in the round of 25, which was whittled down to the 6 finalists who competed.

Dina’s first segment (View Recipe and Video) had her sharing Carrot Cake pancakes with brown sugar and cream cheese icing — she then competed in a “Chopped-style” competition against the 6 other contestants — ultimately coming out on top as the winner.
