I love all types of food but have recently found out I am lactose intolerant and I try to eat more fish then meat. I am always trying to create new quick meals that are healthy that use vegatables, whole grains and fish. I descibe myself as a vegan who eat fish so sometimes cooking gets tricky.
My favorite things to cook
Anything new...and i love using spices makes everything taste better. wWo needs mayo, butter and oils when you have spices?
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love going home since my mom has always been a wonderful cook. She would always make different types of food growing up from Italian to Indian and in a healthy way. I've defiently incorporate those ideals into my cooking.
My cooking triumphs
I've just started baking recently and realized you can have fun with the recipe and add and adjust. For some reason I was always taught to make exact measurements or else it wouldnt work.
My cooking tragedies
Roasted eggplant sauce for whole wheat penne. It took me forever to roast that thing and i tried making the sauce extra healthy and just turned into bland mush.
