"The child of displaced Bostonians in the fertile heartland of America, my food tastes and interests have always been wide and varied. Growing up watching a myriad of cooking shows, and anxiously awaiting the delicious concoctions my family would create in the kitchen and on the grill, I have always had a love of good food and tasty meals. Some of my favorite ingredients to cook with are garam masala, kale, butternut squash and fresh garlic. I also make a mean mustard salad dressing and my refrigerator pickles have been described as "otherworldy."

I pride myself on being quite the adventurous eater. I have dined on venison with hunters, snacked on fried cricket, cooked soup with freegans and licked ants in the Australian rainforest. These days, I am living in Chicago, tending to an indoor herb garden and cooking up big batches of rice and beans, chili and curry. I have a deep passion for fresh food and good cooking, and I hope to share my love and expertise of tasty healthy cooking on FaveDiets.com!"
