Here's my “Nourishing Equation” … Make good-for-you food irresistible and you'll never feel deprived. The food you should eat becomes the food you want to eat. Take a taste for yourself!

If you’ve been cooking our recipes here on Nourish Network, you’ve probably noticed that the vast majority of them have no measurement when it comes to salt; only ‘sea salt’ listed in the ingredients. The reason is two-fold. First, range of preference varies widely when it comes to how heavily to salt a dish. Second, I’m more interested in encouraging people to wisely discern how much salt suits both their taste and needs than dictate how much to use in a single dish.

As the seasons change I feel the desire to find abundance in frugality; joy in what we already have. One way to do both, I’ve discovered, is to create a variety of economical stocks from scraps that then become the base for soups all winter long.

Julia Roberts finds herself in “Eat Pray Love.” For Lia, a frightening diagnosis sparks her own life-changing journey.
My mission is to inspire and equip you to live a richer life through real food by becoming a more competent, confident home cook.
