But I. Do cook with real food, don't I?

The idea for this blog came about because of my love of food combined with my training as a nutritionist. First of all, I love anything creative and cooking is just that, creative. But I've also come to understand that food should be a vehicle to providing proper fuel to the body, for all it's functions, therefore I cook with real food. I'm not talking about the stuff that comes prepackaged in boxes or in the freezer section of the store. I mean plain food in it's simplest of forms, tomatoes, meat, fish, vegetables, onions, celery, that sort of thing. It's also know as. Cooking from scratch, just like it was done before all the convenience foods came along.
This blog is Not a vegetarian or vegan place although such recipes can be included here. Oh sure, there will be nutrition tips along the way, but it's mostly about cooking food you will actually enjoy when you eat it. And it doesn't mean you will spend hours in the kitchen cooking, unless you choose to do that. It's about using plain foods, modern appliances like slow cookers, food processors & such that make the job easier, to make delicious meals that you'll want to make over and over again.
When I was writing my dissertation ( did I mention I have a PhD in holistic nutrition? I do) I wrote about how food affects ones quality of life. One should enjoy their lives to have a good quality of life, in order to do that one must have the energy to do what they like, so they have to provide their bodies with the proper fuel for that energy, and since the fuel comes from the food, one must get good food and since the best food is what you, yourself, make, you have to cook. That's where this all began, cooking to maintain a good energy level so I can enjoy the things I like to do. One of those things I like to do is to cook. So here we go, hang on for the ride or get off if you like. W will explore many cuisines, there will be tips & tricks along the way. Just remember one thing during our journey. It's the great equalizer -- the one thing everyone on earth, animal, humans, plants, etc. have in combo min -- we all eat.
Enjoy the ride. . .
