I am a yoga teacher, wife and new mom of a baby boy. My passions are cooking and fitness and raising our son.My husband is vegetarian and I am a converted vegetarian since the past 10 years. I grew up eating meat and I still do miss my old favourites. My commitments don't leave me much time to cook so every recipe I use has to meet 3criteria- taste really good, be quick to cook, be healthy. I do make an effort to cook foods that are low in fats and sugars. I cook lunch and dinner at home everyday and we limit eating out to once a month.So Im always thinking up new and innovative ways of cooking old favorites.
