About Me
I was born and raised in Transylvania, Romania! My love and inspiration for cooking healthy comes from my mother, who knew just about every wild edible herb, mushroom, berry, or grass. She knew when to pick it, and how to use it for the best taste and nutritional benefits. At the time I did't see the importance of her talent, but after I moved to the USA, I realized that none of us, 5 children plus parents, were ever sick needing hospitalization. However, as I got busy with "more important stuff" and neglected to cook healthy, I began to experience unpleasant changes that made me nostalgic after the old ways. Today, I am a happy wife of an amazing man, and proud mother of two wonderful children! Though my family and I are not fully vegan(yet), my recipes here are all vegan. They will include a variety of grains, beans, lentils, nuts, vegetables and herbs. I am always happy when I can create tasty recipes that are gluten and soy free. I hope you find my blog helpful and inspiring. Please know that your comments and suggestions are appreciated!
