Green Cuisine

about me

I try to stay away from foods laced with preservatives and use whole grains and organic ingredients whenever its feasible.

I've got a toddler son who inspires me to create healthy, diverse menus. I strive to introduce him to a wide variety of foods and dishes. I began making his food at home the moment he started on solids and have enjoyed every moment of his food exploration so far. Helping him expand his palate and avoid a lifetime of picky eating is a high priority for me.

My biggest recipe hurdle is that I have a terrible habit of not writing down what I've done when I experiment. So, when I create some great new recipe that I just love, I can never manage to duplicate it to perfection. It happens time and time again and I just never seem to learn my lesson.

Favorite Foods:

I enjoy just about any ethnic food and attempt to make most of them at home; Thai, Indian, Korean, Mexican, Italian, etc... I love sushi. Preparing it is usually a challenge, but its worth every bite. The good old American dishes that I grew up on are always a comfort as well.

I have an inclination for fresh fruits and vegetables and can't imagine a meal without them.

Oh and then there is chocolate. Ever since my pregnancy, I can't seem to keep my hands off of the stuff.
