Recipes made in my kitchen and restaurants from around the world- I’m a foodie and I don’t mind who knows it! I love cooking and learning about food, so any tips I learn are shared here.
While eating pasta frequently wouldn’t be a problem for my tastebuds, it would be an issue for my health (and waistline). With that being said (written), I am continuing to make different variations to see which healthier alternatives I like the most. The most recent recipe experiment uses lentils in the sauce as a replacement…
Today, I paired pork tenderloin with kale and vegetables and I actually think that it tastes delicious. I say “actually” because I honestly didn’t know how much I would enjoy the heated kale and cannellini beans. Truth be told, you barely even notice that the kale has been cooked!
