Bluesfest Recap 2016

This year included a lot more gluten free options! Every year I want to find out how many people are offering GF options (not pizza, unfortunately..) so I always ask each vendor. THIS YEAR Fadi's (Main Stage) started offering gluten free wraps and buns! Hooray! I guess it helps to keep asking ;)

Babotie - South African Ground Lamb Casserole

I fell in love with this dish when I was at cooking school and make it for a lot of my clients. I'm happy to be sharing my version of it with you! I make this a lot at home of myself too since it's an easy grab and go lunch that can be reheated really easily in a microwave or toaster oven.

Hello lovers (single or otherwise)!
Happy V-day weekend / lonely hearts club.

I lived in a bachelorette apartment for 2 years as I was gearing up into my cooking career. I always felt compassion for those living on their own who wanted to cook healthily, but were frustrated by the idea of cooking for one - all the dishes, leftovers, the food waste, what's the point!? etc.

I've started a series called Nom Essentials. I think it's important to realize how easy and affordable cooking from scratch is.. not to mention the health benefits! If you're gluten intolerant and dairy intolerant and know all about how important it is to eat organic corn vs GMO corn, this is the snack for you!
