“The Time has Come My Friends to Talk of Many Things”…

Posted on February 19, 2021April 15, 2021 by Jen

Posted on February 19, 2021February 27, 2022 by Jen

Seeking Socarrat… A Bit of History: Paella is one of my favorite meals for many reasons. It is easy to assemble, the ingredients can be varied and I love cooking over an open flame. In addition, who doesn’t love a dish where it is acceptable and tradition to eat right out of the pan!  This…

Slow Food, Less Effort, 1 Ingredient at a Time

Are you striving to make a lifestyle change or looking to discover plant-focused recipes the whole family will love?

My name is Jen. I am a wife, mom, and a pharmacist. I love to cook for my family, hike, run, and read about history. I enjoy eating fresh, seasonal, locally available produce. In addition to endurance trail runs and long bike rides, I will happily set out on foraging hikes for mushrooms and truffles.

Waiting for the seasons to change, fruits to ripen, vegetables to mature, or truffles to reach their peak (7-11 years) is an endurance sport in itself.  Nonetheless, the time and effort spent is well worth crossing that finish line and enjoying a delicious, healthy meal.

I always say the slower you run, the more you enjoy the trail. Food is the same. Cooking together in the kitchen with freshly harvested fruits and vegetables is all about taking life slower and enjoying the process and experience. Plant-based, healthy food for the whole family with less effort, so you can slow down and enjoy life!
