Cooking is fun. Eating is funner. I cook, photograph and write these recipes.
Everything I post on this blog I make from scratch using fresh wholesome ingredients.. I've been cooking since I was a little kid.
My recipes are based on trial and error, along with studying cookbooks, family recipes, blogs and cooking shows.
Some of the veggies and herbs I use are grown in my garden. Yay sustainability!
I'm working on making my yard into an edible landscape. It's really fun to go out in the garden and pick your veggies for dinner!

I used to think kale was tough and a bit too “green” tasting. Not anymore. I recently discovered this lacy, organic Tuscan kale at my neighborhood farmers market and now I can’t get enough.

This kale slaw is super healthy and with a little bit of orange juice, honey and cayenne in the dressing, it’s also very yummy!
Wash and chop red cabbage, grate a carrot, and de-stem and finely chop some kale.
For the dressing, the juice of 1 tangerine, 1 smashed open garlic clove, 2 tblsp cider vinegar, salt pepper, pinch of dried basil, small pinch of cayenne, 1 tsp honey, whisk in 2 tblsp olive oil till the dressing emulsifies. Pour it over your finely chopped veggies and toss to coat.
Yum!
