Introduction It is a well-known fact that I love to cook, and a reason to do so - in both big and small ways! For me creativity is usually born partially out of necessity – improvising with what I have on hand to make my own version of a recipe I intended to follow but forgot ingredients for, or didn’t have time to follow the steps. Although we love to entertain and I love spending time dreaming up garnishes and choosing platters and dishes for serving – that kind of time and effort is reserved for special occasions. Most nights are simple meals I can easily and quickly prepare but are delicious, healthy, and balanced for my family. And frankly, most well balanced fresh meals are beautiful on their own without lots of fussing! For years friends and family have been asking me how we eat so well. I decided there is no reason I shouldn't start sharing my efforts with all of you. I hope this blog is a useful tool for you in preparing the tasty meals you desire without having to do much planning or fussing. So follow along and cook with me, use the meals as a supplement to the meals already in your proven rotation, or as a guide to being more creative and free with your cooking.
