About the author

Cooking is a passion for me but I would sooner give up my wooden spoons than plan out a weekly shopping list; it is tedious and way too many expensive food items end up being unused and tossed. My recipes are created using a well stocked pantry (without a can of mushroom soup in sight) which gives you the freedom to cruise your favorite markets and pick out foods that look good, or ones you simply feel like eating, so you can stop thinking about what you are going to make and start cooking.
