I like simple food, real ingredients and tasty combinations. Clean ingredients that are grown without hormones, antibiotics, and GMO’s (genetically modified organisms) and that support the local economy and local farmers, fishers, ranchers, etc… Sustainable food is good for your body, good for the animals, and good for the environment.
I am committed to promoting recipes & advice that are free from food fixations which take away from our enjoyment, wonder, appreciation, and curiosity of life.

Seasonal Recipes
Don't ignore the seasons and the fresh ingredients that come with each distinct time of the year. Part of cooking with real ingredients and supporting the local economy and local farmers, fishers, ranchers means trying to use ingredients that are produced locally.
My personal favorites (at least right now)
My tastebuds change dramatically based on the season, the weather and other factors. Whereas heartier meals like stews and pastas are usually calling me during the late fall and winter, during the summer I crave salads and sandwiches. Here's what I'm craving now.
Hire me!
As a professional cook my experience ranges from recipe development to running a large commercial kitchen, being an entrepreneur and business owner, running this blog, and to multi-tasking as a personal chef. So, I may not have the best advice on world affairs or baby names, but I do know a thing or two about food.
My commercial clients generally find my recipe development services and my food photography most useful. For private clients, I offer in-home personal chef services, and dinner parties (either at your home or in my home).
