All my recipes are easy.

All my recipes feature whole foods.

Keeping ingredients to their simple essence and light preparation maintains food’s health and taste.

It’s 2 pans max for me (mostly).  I test my recipes at least twice before posting. I aim to make them intuitive and foolproof – and flexible enough to easily switch in your favorite veggies and flavors.

If you try one of my recipes, please let me know how you liked it.

Thanks for checking out my easy healthy recipes and Bon appetite!
