A few weeks ago, I went to a fund raiser for Cook For Your Life. They're an amazing resource that teaches people in cancer recovery the art of making healthy, nutrient rich meals. They just came out with a beautiful new cookbook called COOK for Your LIFE. The author Ann Gaffney has been teaching people how to nourish and heal their bodies with food for many years. I was glad to take part that evening and learn what she had to share.
The event was at a cooking school, and we paired up in groups and made a delicious turkey dinner together. I was on the dressing and mashed potato team and I must say, we totally killed it. There were fantastic wine pairings with the food and they made the evening even more fun.
A local food celebrity, Angelo Garro was at the event. I'd just read about Angelo in Sunset Magazine, for a yummy product he makes called Omnivore Salt. I was given some as a gift last year and I absolutely loved it. It's something I've stocked in my kitchen and used in my meals ever since! Now Angelo has a new lemon salt which I’m dying to try as well. I love a healthy product that tastes great!
