About me

My name is Kim, a Recipe Developer and Food Stylist. According to Gen. 1:26 in the NIV

God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.

God created all the foods for us and if you look at the recipes of the Mediterranean, the dishes are beautiful and healthy, they are made with whole foods not processed. The Mediterranean diet is one of the healthiest diets in the world, it is not just a diet plan but a way of life .

You will not find processed foods in our recipes and we only use Olive Oil, Coconut Oil and sometimes Butter, no Margarine. Our recipes have been made in our kitchen numerous times. Every recipe on this blog are from passed down family recipes to Middle East recipes and all were Mediterranean Inspired!
