About Me

I approach cooking with an emphasis on quick, easy, and affordable family-style meals. I believe healthy should be tasty, and the best way to enjoy eating healthy is to eat together! When I’m not in my kitchen, I'm often hiking in the mountains around my home or exploring the best food locations in Portland. My favorite food is anything shared with friends!

Food has a special ability to bring people together. I often find this in my own life, and I hope you will find that this online community feels just as welcoming as a real kitchen. For me, cooking together builds the best communities! Let's get cooking together!

I believe simple is best and creates less stress! You don’t need a ton of cooking experience to follow my recipes. I work to make my recipes simple yet interesting and flavorful. If you ever have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask by sending a message or posting a comment.
