My Recipes
Cooking for two just got easier! I love creating small recipes with simple ingredients anyone can enjoy. Being a home chef, I try to create everything from scratch using ingredients I grow in my garden, or from a local market. Being in Portland gives me access to so many amazingly fresh ingredients that I cannot wait to turn into something delicious!
