LifestyleEating

SpicyGrammyCooks a service of LifestyleEating stands out because it is an approach to food preparation that is healthy, thrifty, intuitive, inherently seasonal, and delicious; the kind of food that nourishes and delights the palette. Grandmothers are some of the most experienced cooks in the world. We cook by touch, by smell, and by taste; pulling from an intuitive knowledge developed and refined over generations of inherited trial and error. We’ve learned to listen to the sizzle of garlic or the gurgle of curry to gauge when to proceed to the next step. We’ve experimented and discovered how a dash of salt or sugar can take a dish from blah to blessed. Thriftiness was always at the forefront using every part of an ingredient and repurposing leftovers to avoid waste. All these things are the hallmarks of our grandmother’s cooking. The special ingredient that was used in all her dishes was the time and love she put into everything she made.

I enjoy creating meals that not only look great but taste amazing and are healthy for you. I want people to be drawn in by the beautiful presentation of the foods I serve. I love helping people learn how to be better cooks and take the drudgery out of meal planning and use their creative side. I want to break back the fun and excitement of eating and cooking healthy.
