I financially support my boyfriend, who is on permanent disability for his back. He has recently developed heart and intestinal issues, and has been told that he has to go on a low sodium diet. I have found several recipes on here that have been incredible, and am on the hunt for more healthy ways that we can enjoy food and extend his life (and mine).
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook veggies. Not big on frying, and love to try new combinations of taste and texture. I love trying new things and new cultures in cooking.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mother is vegan and my father is close to vegetarian (although he loves a good steak once in a while). My parents cook with a lot of rice and tofu; I am not a big fan of tofu unless I can't taste it.
My cooking triumphs
I have successfully made a few vegetarian dishes that people wouldn't know were missing the meat. I want to find more.
My cooking tragedies
I'm not much of a baker....
