In December of 2008, at age 32, I survived a heart attack.
First, let me say for the record. I am not technically a trained chef. "Chef Cardio" is a nickname I acquired after having my heart attack -- and it has just kind of stuck with me since due to my cooking habits!
A lot has changed since then in my life and of course one of the main lifestyle changes was my diet. I love to cook!! Always have!! I especially love to grill outdoors. Nothing more tasty than pulled pork that has slow smoked for 18 hours over flavorful woods!
My mission these days are taking creations of my own or tweaking other flavorful recipes out there and making them "Heart Healthy" for lack of a better term.
Enjoy!
My favorite things to cook
I absolutely love cooking and experimenting on the grill! Meats, vegetables, seafood -- you name it and I've most likely attempted to grill it. Heck, I once made brownies on the grill! HA!
