I have been a pescatarian for 10 years, which means that I am vegetarian, except for eating FISH and seafood. I cook for 2 most of the time and like healthy, easy, economical dishes that don't require obscure ingredients or complicated machinery. I like to cook with seasonal fruits and vegetables from the local farmer's market that I go to every Saturday. I go camping a lot and do lots of campfire cooking with freshly caught fish and local produce.
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook from the earth and the cupboard. I don't like recipes that require any fancy equipment like food processors or pasta machines. I enjoy economical food like those prepared with dried lentils, canned chickpeas, etc. I like low saturated fat foods for desserts and snacking.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I like to eat and cook locally grown foods with a splash of character. I use a lot of spices, but avoid overly-pungent flavors.
