Chef Jodi Town

about me

I live in Houston, TX, and have a husband who loves to eat. Just as well, since I love to cook. I enjoy looking for and trying out new recipes from various cookbooks, the internet, and the Food Network. Bless Rachael Ray - I just love her 30 minute meals.

We have a motor home, and enjoy traveling with our two dogs and finding interesting places. Our favorite is the Texas Hill Country (Lake Travis in Austin is great, and Fredericksburg). We also enjoy the Port Aransas area on the southern coast.

My husband and I are currently following the Body for Life program, and their Eating for Life cookbook is one of my mainstays. Some of the recipes you see me post will be from here. But eventually, you get tired of eating the same things and have to look elsewhere for inspiration. Including snacks, we eat 5-6 times per day, so I need a lot of inspiration. This site has been very helpful with that. I am looking forward to finding more delicious, healthy meals to cook.

Favorite Foods:

I love anything that has lots of butter, bacon, good bread, and cheese. Since I'm a southern girl, I also love biscuits and gravy, and Chicken and Dumplings. However, I have to limit these to Saturday, which is our free day.

We have lots of really good restaurants in Houston, and we enjoy trying them all. Mexican restaurants are our favorite, with Italian coming in a close second. Pizza is always at the top of the list, as well.
